Golden Jubilee Bridge illuminated

And there’s a cultural programme for people to enjoy at home with music from composers
from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, creating music inspired by the bridges and
the artwork.
Its also hoped there could be some activities for people to enjoy at the bridges at night -
depending on what happens with the coronavirus lockdown.

The project attracted submissions from 100 hopeful artists keen to showcase their work
along the river.

It's taken five years work to light up the river and included 18 specialist teams, and getting
permission from 50 stakeholders including seven London boroughs.

Waterloo Bridge will be lit with a simple line of light

London Bridge, Cannon Street Railway Bridge, Southwark and Millennium Bridge have
previously been lit up.

And it is hoped that Chelsea, Albert, Tower and Vauxhall Bridges will also be included in the
future.
