Two Cent Bridge, Suspension footbridge in Waterville, United States

The Two Cent Bridge stretches 400 feet across the Kennebec River, connecting the communities of Waterville and Winslow with its steel cable construction.

Built in 1903 by the Berlin Construction Company, this bridge replaced an earlier structure from 1901 that was destroyed by flooding along the Kennebec River.

The bridge received its name from the two-cent toll that pedestrians paid to cross between Waterville and the Hollingsworth & Whitney Company paper mills.

Located at coordinates 44.5509° latitude and -69.6261° longitude, the bridge maintains a six-foot-wide pathway for pedestrian traffic between the two towns.

The structure stands as the last remaining toll footbridge in the United States and features an original toll collection booth at its western entrance.
