Perth Bridge, also known as Smeaton's Bridge, locally, the Old Bridge and in the local dialect of Scots, The Auld Brig, is a toll free bridge that spans the River Tay, connecting Perth, on the western side of the river, to Bridgend, on its eastern side, carrying both automotive and pedestrian traffic of West Bridge Street. The bridge was completed in October 1771. The engineer of its construction was John Smeaton, after whom the bridge is named. An increase in traffic resulted in the bridge being widened in 1869.
