All bridges are built to their spec. They put Historic in the headline because it would grab attention, but the bridge isn’t as old as it seems. It’s wooden, so the boards already have to be replaced on a scheduled basis. It was rebuilt from scratch in the 70’s after an arson fire, but you can tell from the images that the deck boards the truck fell through is a lot newer. I should look up the bridge on Google maps, but I’m willing to bet that a modern bridge isn’t very far away and that’s why they can wait till spring to repair it with locally sourced wood. If it was a high necessity path, they could go to a hardware store and fix it in a week or two.
