That bridge was built in 1967, according to a guy on Fox tv news.

More disaster porn. This is where the World Service comes in real
handy. A badly designed piece of crap bridge succumbs to Murphy's
Law; get over it (there's more where that came from).

Where did you get the idea that it was badly designed. Given that the
bridge was built in the 1960's, used extensively and regularly dosed
with road salt I suspect that the local authorities failed to spend
the money to maintain the bridge. Inspections notwithstanding.
