Reardon Road Overpass

Although incredibly useful, the Fredericton to Moncton highway (Route 2) can be a bid tedious at times. A lot of the trip is spent driving through woods, with the only real pit stop being the Youngs Cove Irving.

Other than trees, I'd bet the next most abundant element is the over passes. The Reardon Road, which connects Route 105 and Route 695 is one of these concrete structures, but has a twist. 

Every other overpass (as far as I can tell) has the typical 'plywood concrete form' look. The Reardon Road (both east and west lanes) has a board and batten type design, with an interesting retaining wall as well. Why is this one different? The road isn't anything special; in fact having an overpass there probably wasn't necessary, considering there are two major on/off ramps minutes down the road.

Regardless, it is nice to see a touch of personality put into something as utilitarian as an overpass. You can find this oddity between the Coles Island and Mill Cove exits, so keep your eyes open.
