Hurricane Damage to New England’s Covered Bridges

New England’s famous covered bridges took a beating from the inland flooding caused by Hurricane Irene. Read about it in the Burlington Free Press and the New York Times and watch video of one bridge that weathered the storm.

  1. I’ve seen the bridge in Quechee. Sad to see it go, though I am fairly sure it will be rebuilt. These bridges are far too important to Vermont’s identity to have them disappear.
