The Hartland Covered Bridge in Hartland is the world's longest covered bridge, spanning 1,282 feet (391 m). The most recent covered bridge constructed in New Brunswick is the Vaughan Creek Covered Bridge, which was reconstructed to add a second lane. [ 2 ]
It functions as a secondary leg of the Trans-Canada Highway to connect Prince Edward Island with the mainline Trans-Canada Highway Route 2 in Tantramar. Route 16 is the last section of the Trans-Canada in New Brunswick that is not four lanes wide, with no plans in the near future to be widened, as the Confederation Bridge is also only two lanes.
