Selon Wikipedia, "le pont de Hartland est un pont couvert traversant le fleuve Saint-Jean entre Hartland et Somerville, au Nouveau-Brunswick (Canada). Avec ses 391 mètres de longueur, il est le plus long pont couvert au monde. Construit en 1901 mais pas encore couvert, il se détériore rapidement sous l'effet des intempéries et il est partiellement détruit lors d'un embâcle en 1920. Profitant de sa fermeture et des réparations, il est couvert et rouvre en 1922. Il devient un lieu historique national en 1977. Présent dans la culture néo-brunswickoise, il est également un site fréquenté par les touristes".
