Английская Википедия:Hugh John Flemming Bridge
Шаблон:Infobox bridge The Hugh John Flemming Bridge is a multi-arch concrete structure which forms part of Route 130 near Hartland, New Brunswick, Canada. It was completed in 1960.[1]
The bridge was built to accommodate the Trans Canada Highway, which opened in 1962. Because it is within view of the famous Hartland Covered Bridge a beautiful design was chosen instead of a less expensive steel-deck truss design. 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.[2]
