Rules

In the 2026 Bridge Madness Tournament, 16 bridges that cross the Thames River in London go pier-to-pier in a reader’s choice tournament to pick the best one. This year’s tournament features bridges visited by urbantraipsing on a 2012 bridge-walking expedition.

Results of the Final Four:

• Tower Bridge vs. Albert Bridge – 71% to 29%
• Millennium Bridge vs. Westminster Bridge – 57% to 43%

Below is the Championship bracket. Remember to vote for your favorite bridge by noon on Saturday, March 28th, and then return on March 29th to see the Champion.

To learn more about the bridges, revisit the introduction which has links to posts on each bridge.
