Stop Thirteen - Coleman Bridge.

A plaque describing a brief history of the bridge

The bridge is named after the designer of the first Coleman Bridge, George D. Coleman, who was the first Superintendent of Public Works as well as Singapore's first architect. Three other Coleman Bridges (built in 1865, 1886 and 1990 respectively) have since replaced that first structure. The latest and biggest Coleman Bridge was completed in 1990 as part of the New Bridge Road Widening Scheme.
