Route 1 is a storied highway, extending from the Canadian border in Maine to Florida's southern tip. But as of last week, it's no longer complete.<br/><br/> The 87-year-old Memorial Bridge, which carried Route 1 traffic over the Piscataqua River between Kittery and Portsmouth, N.H., is now a pedestrian-and-bicycle-only span due to severe deterioration.<br/><br/> That's inconvenient for drivers, who now have to either detour to the high-level Interstate 95 bridge or use another street-level span.
