Connecticut River Bridge
The Main Street Bridge, also known as the Ascutney Bridge, is a significant structure that spans the Connecticut River, connecting Claremont, New Hampshire, and Weathersfield, Vermont. This steel girder bridge was built in 1969 to replace a previous three-span steel Parker truss structure that was constructed in 1908. The current bridge is a four-span continuous welded plate girder structure with a length of 467 feet 8 inches. It was built by the state of New Hampshire at a cost of $54,444. The bridge underwent a deck rehabilitation in 1991, underscoring the commitment to its upkeep.
