  • The longest covered bridge in the world, the Hartland bridge is comprised of 7 Howe truss spans for a total length of 1,282 feet (391 m).  The original bridge was not covered, and was completed in 1901, on wooden piers. River ice in the St John river took out two spans in the flood of April 1920, and the bridge was rebuilt, with the piers changed to concrete, and the structure was covered, re-opening in 1922.

  • Moosehorn Creek cuts through the Albert formation, a Lower Carboniferous unit between Bloomfield and Sussex, New Brunswick. The covered bridge over Moosehorn Creek, built in 1915, was the first in the province to be restored as part of a recreation and picnic area. The original dirt road, visible in archived photos, has become a hiking trail through the Norton Geopark, one of the Stonehammer Geoparks in the province. A Howe truss bridge, it is 95 feet (29 m) long, and still has the original cedar shingles.

  • Built in 1905, this Howe truss bridge on Urney Road crosses Trout Creek, spanning 66 feet (20.1 m). This interior shot clearly shows William Howe's design, with steel tension rods holding the upper and lower chords together, and diagonal timbers acting as compression members to give the structure rigidity.  This simple design gave incredible rigidity over long spans, which made it very popular for railroad bridges, as well as smaller covered bridges.
