This bridge crosses a shallower section of the river in the norther reaches
It does not open to allow boat traffic leaving the upper river useless
for commercial, maritime traffic and
wharves etc.
Looking from Fairhaven we see over into New Bedford and the Coggeshall Bridge.
It is an extension of Coggeshall Street.
In the background, we see the former (so named) Fairhaven Mills although they are in New Bedford.
Unfortunately, the bridge is solid, and no boat traffic can pass under it due to it's low stature. |
