Senator George Mitchell Peace Bridge
Senator George Mitchell Peace Bridge, Road bridge at Ireland-United Kingdom border, County Fermanagh and County Cavan.
The Senator George Mitchell Peace Bridge extends 30 meters across the Woodford River, connecting Enniskillen in County Fermanagh to Cavan town.
The bridge opened in 1999, replacing the previous Aghalane Bridge that was destroyed in 1972 during a period of regional instability.
The structure bears the name of United States Special Envoy George Mitchell, who led negotiations resulting in the Good Friday Agreement.
The bridge carries the A509 and N3 roads, reducing travel time between regions that previously required a 19-kilometer detour.
The construction received £1,061,250 from the EU Special Support Programme for Peace and Reconciliation to strengthen cross-border connections.
