Hampton Bridge, Steel road bridge in Hampton Harbor, United States.
The Hampton Bridge spans the Hampton River with a bascule design that opens to allow boats to pass beneath the steel structure.
The current bridge, opened in 1949, replaced the Mile-Long Wooden Bridge which held the title of longest bridge in the United States during the early 1900s.
The structure bears the name Neil R. Underwood Memorial Bridge, connecting the communities of Hampton and Seabrook across New Hampshire's coastal waters.
The bridge handles approximately 18,000 vehicles daily and requires frequent openings during tourist season to accommodate maritime traffic beneath.
A new fixed high-level steel girder structure will replace the current bridge by 2027, eliminating the need for boat passage interruptions.
