Jemseg River Bridge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Jemseg River Bridge is the name for two different structures currently crossing the Jemseg River in Jemseg, New Brunswick, Canada.

The original Jemseg River Bridge was constructed in the mid-1960s and carried the 2-lane Route 2 (Trans-Canada Highway). A realignment of the highway opened in October 2002 and saw a new 950 m haunched girder bridge constructed approximately 100 m upstream from the original, which is still in use by Route 105. This new structure carries the 4-lane Route 2 on a much broader span with considerably less approaching grade from the west.
