April 26, 2021 David Brooks of the Concord Monitor is reporting that the Bement Covered Bridge is scheduled to be put back in place on Tuesday May 4th.

The bridge was moved last year so that new abutments could be installed. During that time there was additional work done to replace damaged pieces of the bridge. Once the bridge is in place it will be some time before it will be reopened. The work is being done by Daniels Construction of Ascutney, Vermont.

The Bement Covered Bridge in the town of Bradford was built in 1854 to cross the West Branch of the Warner River. The single-span bridge uses a Paddleford-variation truss. The bridge measures 61 feet in length.
