Piscataqua River Bridge

I-95, Portsmouth, New Hampshire USA

Independent

The Piscataqua River Bridge is a through arch bridge that crosses the Piscataqua River, connecting Portsmouth, New Hampshire with Kittery, Maine. Carrying six lanes of Interstate 95, the bridge is the third modern span and first fixed crossing of the Piscataqua between Portsmouth and Kittery. The two other spans, the Memorial Bridge and the Sarah Mildred Long Bridge, are both lift bridges, built to accommodate ship traffic along the Piscataqua. The high arch design of the Piscataqua River Bridge eliminates the need for a movable roadway.

We crossed this bridge on our way to Nova Scotia. I like that you cross over into Maine in the middle of the bridge. If you like to document your travels, don't forget to snap a pic of the state line of Maine while on the bridge.
