London Bridge isn't an opening bridge. The only bridge in London which spans the River Thames and can open, is Tower Bridge. If a boat needs to have the bridge opened so that it can pass underneath, it has to book a slot in advance with the bridgemaster who will arrange to open the bridge at the agreed time.
