Description/Comments:
The Cold River caused great damage to several stretches of Route 2 during Tropical Storm Irene. In this photo, taken during the storm, extensive scouring of the upstream bridge abutment can be seen. Black Brook joins the Cold River just out of this picture, to the right. Black Brook flows pushed water and debris out into the Cold, directing flows towards this spot and exacerbating the damage.
