People in London are being urged to avoid certain landmarks this New Year's Eve due to overcrowding concerns. The City Bridge Foundation is actively discouraging people from going to Tower Bridge and London Bridge, along with several other bridges in the area. Safety is the main concern, as previous years have seen severe overcrowding at these locations. Additionally, the tall buildings and bend in the river make it difficult to get a good view of the fireworks from these spots
To ensure people's safety, stewards and police officers will be present at the bridges. However, if these restrictions have affected your plans, Time Out has compiled a list of alternative places to watch the fireworks and the best New Year parties in the city. So don't worry, there are still plenty of options to ring in the new year in style.
