Cianbro Launches Sarah Mildred Long Lift Span Float-in Operation Cianbro News - CianbroNews Oct 18 2017 201 0 The operation to float-in the lift span for the new Sarah Mildred Long Bridge is underway in the Piscataqua River between Kittery, Maine and Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The three-million-pound center lift span was floated in on barges across the Piscataqua River on Tuesday after the navigational channel was closed to all other vessels – from kayaks to tankers – within a 300-yard radius of the bridge.
