The Periyar Bridge was constructed in 1805 as St. George's Bridge. Since it formed the main access to the neighbourhood of Triplicane from Fort St George, it was also known as Triplicane Bridge. The bridge was rebuilt in the 1920s. The St. George's Bridge was renamed as Periyar Bridge after India's independence.
