Governors must act now on Piscataqua River Bridge suicide barriers: Letter

Dear Governor Ayotte, Governor Mills, and Representatives: I am writing to urge you both to take immediate, decisive action to install permanent suicide prevention barriers on the Piscataqua River Bridge connecting Portsmouth, New Hampshire, and Kittery, Maine. We cannot continue to lose lives while this issue remains under study. The time for action is now. The repeated loss of life at this bridge is a devastating reminder that suicide prevention requires more than signs, crisis hotline numbers, and promises to explore possible solutions. Those resources are important, but they are not enough when a known, preventable danger remains in place. In April 2026, it was reported that an engineering feasibility study had recommended wire-net and rod-fencing systems for potential installation on the Piscataqua River Bridge. Despite this progress, a final decision and construction timeline had not been established. How many more lives must be lost before a permanent physical barrier becomes a priority? Suicide is a complex public health issue, and preventing it requires a comprehensive approach. Physical barriers are an important, evidence-informed prevention measure because they can interrupt an immediate crisis, create time for intervention, and help prevent an impulsive act from becoming a permanent tragedy.
