Millennium Bridge

325 metres long, 4 metres wide
The flat steel suspension bridge carries pedestrians over the river between Tate Modern and St Paul’s Cathedral. Also known as the Wobbly Bridge because of the swaying that occurred at its official opening in 2000. The bridge was closed while the problem was solved using a system of dampers.
