Covered Bridge - Salmon

The Salmon bridge crosses the Kennebecasis River on Route 890, just north of Hwy 1 (Exit 195). No longer in service, it has been replaced by a modern 2-lane bridge built beside it. This Howe truss bridge is now restricted to predestrian traffic, and the approaches are used as a rest stop/picnic area. Built in 1908, it is 112 feet (34.2 m) long.
