2014 Fort Kent International Bridge Maintenance Operation

If you travel the International Bridge in Fort Kent between Maine and New Brunswick, you're going to want to seek an alternate route very soon, due to construction on the bridge.

According to the Maine Department of Transportation, the Fort Kent International Bridge will be limiting passage of over-sized vehicles. Large trucks are encouraged to use alternate routes including the border crossing at Madawaska from May 27th through June 23rd.

Vehicles measuring 9 feet wide by 12 feet high and 22 feet long (and larger) will not be allowed on the bridge.This is for both inbound and outbound traffic.

Then from June 25th through July 8th, vehicles entering the United States from Canada are limited to those smaller than 9 feet wide by 12 feet high and 22 feet long. Also during that time, vehicles leaving the United States to enter Canada must be shorter than 49 feet.
