The Bloomfield-Nulhegan River Route 102 Bridge is a historic bridge in Bloomfield, Vermont. It carries Vermont Route 102 over the Nulhegan River, near its mouth at the Connecticut River just south of Bloomfield Village. It is a six-panel single-span steel Pratt through truss bridge, resting on concrete abutments. Its length is 134 feet (41 m) and its width is 24 feet (7.3 m), with a portal clearance height of 15 feet (4.6 m). It stands about 10 feet (3.0 m) above the river. The bridge was built in 1937, as part of a bridge-building program introduced after a major flooding event in the state in 1927. It is a well-preserved example of a Pratt truss of the period.[2]
The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.[1]
