Reviews
"Have gone over this bridge hundreds of times by now and not once did it seem like I was going to fall into the water. 10/10 did what it was supposed to do. Who reviews a bridge anyway?"
"I always base my bridge reviews on the ability of the bridge to perform its specified duty for the first 3 stars, and the cultural and social impact of the design for the remaining two. The beautiful metallic trusses embody much of our daily lives; the daily commute to support those we love despite constant (mental) traffic. This commute is frequently arduous, however beautiful from the correct perspective. The intertwining of said supports creates the very fibers a functioning society builds upon. The peak of this bridge serves as a visual representation of the interconnectedness of this beautiful state; of multiculturalism. Here lies the beauty in the bridge, the symbolism of a supportive society. An honest homage to the intentions of any bridge. I am speechless. This bridge both exemplifies the symbiotic relationship us humans have with society. Complicated, while ironically simple. Supportive, yet independent. What a magnificent experience. 5/5."
"Crossed the bridge very fast which most likely has to do with how short the bridge was. Which in turn probably had to do with how narrow the river under it is. Regardless of how narrow the river is, a bridge is still very much needed in order to stay dry (or if you can't swim, to not drown and die). I would recommend this bridge to many, and I will be back, going the other way, on my way home. 4 stars! :)"
"There is a neat pedestrian and bike lane on it with historical signs that are very informative. It has a great view. One side has good parking, Amesbury side."
"Love bridges, but traffic would not allow me to leave my car to get a goog pic. This bridge divides Maine and New Hampshire"
