Last year Tower Bridge was closed to traffic for a couple of months to work on the timber decking, lifting mechanism and water proofing its brick arches. Most of the time it was open for pedestrians, but for one day only it was closed and so they put on a replacement ferry - or rather two, one in the photo above and the MV Edwardian (below, from its deck).

OPENING DETAILS

it only was used as a ferry for one day? I'm skeptical that qualifies it a true ferry of London.

Maybe 6 full time ferries and one temporary ferry.
that's a good way to describe them!
