Passing Through New Brunswick
... Brunswick a bit more interesting, we did make some stops – one being in Hartland, to see the longest covered bridge in the world. This bridge at 1,282 feet in length is a single lane bridge with a stop sign on either end. We were amazed and impressed that the traffic runs so smoothly without any traffic light to control the traffic.
