Ducharme Bridge, Wooden covered bridge in La Bostonnais, Canada.
The Ducharme Bridge spans 41.76 meters across the Bostonnais River with a traditional lattice truss design made entirely of spruce wood.
Built between 1945 and 1946, the bridge received its official inauguration in 1948 and gained heritage status classification in March 2006.
The structure bears the name of Romulus Ducharme, who represented the Laviolette district as Member of the Legislative Assembly from 1936 to 1939 and 1944 to 1966.
The bridge measures 6.55 meters in width and maintains a height clearance of 3.1 meters for vehicles crossing the Bostonnais River on Rue de l'Église.
This bridge represents a late example of town bridge engineering developed by the Department of Colonization of Quebec in the early twentieth century.
