Closed due to safety concerns in 2009, the Vilas Bridge, which connects Walpole, N.H. with Bellows Falls across the Connecticut River, may yet be rebuilt and reopened. New Hampshire has earmarked $17.7 million for the project and recently included it in the state's 10-year highway plan. With 7% of the bridge in Vermont, Vermont will be paying 7% of the costs.
