Seabrook-Hampton 15904
Missing Documents
The project is located on Route 1A in the Town of Hampton, Rockingham County. The project entails the rehabilitation or replacement of the Neil R Underwood Bridge (NHDOT Bridge No. 235/025) which spans the Hampton River at the inlet to Hampton Harbor. The bridge is a vital transportation link between the Village of Hampton Beach and Seabrook Village.
The bascule bridge was built in 1949 and replaced a wooden bridge originally constructed for trollies and cars, known as the “Mile-Long Bridge”. It has been rehabilitated multiple times, including in 1963, 1978, 1983, 1990, 2002 and 2010. Emergency repairs to the bascule span mechanical system were undertaken in 2018.
A Bridge, Type, Size and Location Study (TS&L) will be conducted by NHDOT. This study will evaluate three alternatives, Major Rehabilitation, Replacement with a Bascule, and Replacement with a Fixed Structure.
