Hugh John Flemming Bridge

The Hugh John Flemming Bridge is a multi-arch concrete structure which forms part of Route 130 near Hartland, New Brunswick, Canada.

[1] The bridge was built to accommodate the Trans Canada Highway, which opened in 1962.

Writes John Leroux: "the government saw the importance of creating an attractive contemporary structure to honour the beauty of the adjacent structure.

"[2] The design features a series of seven narrow parabolic arches to span the river, inspired by European Expressionist architecture of the 1930s and 30s, specifically the work of Swiss engineer Robert Maillart.
