Kingston Bridge, Stone arch bridge in Kingston upon Thames, England.

Kingston Bridge spans the River Thames with five elliptical arches constructed from Portland stone, extending 382 feet in length and 79 feet in width.

Prior to Putney Bridge's construction in 1729, Kingston Bridge served as the sole crossing between London Bridge and Staines Bridge across the River Thames.

The bridge connects the market town of Kingston to Hampton Court Park, marking an essential link between historic royal grounds and local commerce.

The structure accommodates 50,000 vehicles daily, with peak hours seeing up to 2,000 vehicles per direction, connecting Richmond and Kingston boroughs.

The bridge carries embedded tram lines from 1906, reflecting transportation developments that shaped London's suburban growth in the early 20th century.
