  • Alkaff Bridge is a pedestrian bridge in Singapore. It spans the Singapore River at Robertson Quay, located in the Singapore River planning area within the Central Area. The steel truss bridge is 55 metres in length and weighs about 230 tonnes. It is shaped like a tongkang (a light boat used commonly in the early days to carry goods along rivers), and is situated near the former . Alkaff Quay was named after a prominent Arabian family, the Alkaffs, who were among the wealthiest in Singapore during the early 20th century. The bridge was built in 1997, as part of the Urban Redevelopment Authority's (URA) plan to create a promenade along both banks of the Singapore River. The bridge, completed in 1999, is one of three footbridges — Alkaff Bridge, and Jiak Kim Bridge — built at Robertson Quay to improve the pedestrian connectivity between the two river banks. It was painted by internationally acclaimed visual artist Pacita Abad. (en)
  • Die Alkaff Bridge ist eine Stahl- und Fußgängerbrücke über den Singapore River in Singapur. Sie liegt im und verbindet Robertson Quay mit Alkaff Quay. Sie wurde 1997–1999 gebaut und ist einer der drei Fußgängerbrücken, welche die bequeme Erreichbarkeit der beiden Flussufer für Fußgänger erleichtern sollten. Die Stahlkonstruktion ist 57 Meter lang. 2004 startete die philippinische Künstlerin und Malerin Pacita Abad mit ihrem Team das Projekt "Art Bridge". Sie bemalte die gesamte Stahlkonstruktion der Brücke mit 900 Litern Farbe in 55 Farbtönen mit 2350 bunten Kreisen. (de)
