Clair – Fort Kent Bridge, International road bridge at Saint John River between Maine and New Brunswick.
The steel truss bridge spans 221 meters across the Saint John River, connecting Fort Kent in Maine with Clair in New Brunswick through three sections.
The original footbridge from 1905 was replaced in 1930 by a steel structure, which served until the current bridge opened in 2014.
The bridge marks the northern terminus of U.S. Route 1 and connects communities with strong French Canadian heritage on both sides of the border.
The border crossing operates 24 hours daily, with Canadian commercial services available from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM Monday through Friday.
Daily traffic reaches approximately 2,000 vehicles, making this crossing a vital link in the top third of all United States-Canada border ports.
