Maine Kennebec Bridge, Road bridge across Kennebec River in Richmond, USA.

The Maine Kennebec Bridge spans 75 feet above the water, connecting the communities of Richmond and Dresden across the Kennebec River.

The current structure, completed in 2014, replaced an 84-year-old swing bridge that had served as the sole river crossing point in the area.

The bridge location near historic Fort Richmond marks an important junction where archaeological excavations revealed artifacts from the 1720s settlement.

The modern structure features two wide lanes with shoulders, accommodating large vehicles and providing safe passage for trucks, bicycles, and pedestrians.

The bridge's elevated design eliminated the need for a swing mechanism, allowing continuous river navigation for ice-breaking vessels and maritime traffic.
