The bridge authorities used to keep lookouts for miles down the
river in case something approaching was likely to want the bridge
opened.


Nowadays, as well as giving advance notice for Tower Bridge,
there are various points on the river where ships are required to
radio in.


The problem is quite clear - the bridge is now operated by an
Oyster reader.


Well, the Lord Nelson definitely touched in.
