From Portsmouth NH to Kittery Maine
Posted on 26 June 2009
This is one of three bridges that connect New Hampshire to Maine from Portsmouth NH. This one is often referred to as the “downtown bridge”. It’s a drawbridge that goes up every half hour to allow the tugboats, sailboats, and freighters to pass up and down the Piscataqua River. Portsmouth NH is a working port, and we have constant river traffic that depends on this bridge being raised like clockwork. The real name of this bridge is the Memorial Bridge, and has been placed on the 11 Most Endangered Historic Places for 2009.
