In this episode of Junior Sg Adventures, we feature a historical bridge - Elgin Bridge, which changed its name several times over the course of Singapore’s history. Elgin Bridge was originally a wooden structure, but it was replaced as an iron bridge in 1862. Years later, it was finally reconstructed in a steel framework and encased in concrete.
