Route description

SR 129 begins at Middle Road in South Bristol and heads north towards Bristol, where it connects with SR 130 another "dead-end" route which runs to Pemaquid Point at the southern tip of Bristol. SR 129 and SR 130 are cosigned into Damariscotta where the highway intersects with US 1 Business. Both routes terminate at this intersection.

History

As it was first designated in 1925, SR 129 extended south all the way to the tip of South Bristol at the intersection with Shipley Road. In 2004, the route was truncated to the intersection with Middle Road, which remains its southern terminus. No other major changes have been made to the route, except for the co-signing of SR 130 along its northern segment.

Major intersections

The entire route is in Lincoln County.

gollark: You really like stating that.
gollark: You can be unserious in general, as long as you don't do 🐝 events with owner powers.
gollark: In administrative things, yes.
gollark: Because being in a position of leadership implies somewhat higher expected standards, and also, as I said, nobody has very much to say yet on things.
gollark: Ah. Well. I don't think your boundary is drawn reasonably then. This does not particularly harm anyone. Presumably if someone has much of a suggestion (which you won't utterly ignore) they will say it.
