Nice image - but yikes! Is this the lift bridge that allowed bicycle and pedestrian traffic?

Yes it is. You can still walk across it, but the road is closed to traffic. Supposed to be replaced in the next couple of years. As soon as NH and ME get done figuring out who's going to pay what. I personally hope it is replaced with something none too modern, to fit with that "old port town" Portsmouth charm.

Nice capture of a very cool bridge. This will be a historic photo when it's finally torn down.
