Arch Bridge, Road bridge in Bellows Falls, US.
The metal bridge spans across the Connecticut River with a single arch that reaches both banks of the waterway.
The structure, completed in 1905, held the record as the longest three-hinged arch bridge in the United States at 540 feet in length.
The bridge connects the states of New Hampshire and Vermont, serving as a vital transportation link between the two New England communities.
The bridge carries vehicle traffic on New Hampshire Route 12 and Vermont Route 121 across the Connecticut River between North Walpole and Bellows Falls.
The three-hinged arch design allows the bridge to adjust to temperature changes and foundation movements without developing internal stresses in its structure.
