I remember several decades ago when two bridges on Interstate 5 near Coalinga, California got washed out by heavy rains. What they did was bring in disused railroad cars to build two temporary bridges to get the highway open again until the permanent bridge replacement was constructed.

Please send this to Arizona! Virgin river bridge is on 3 1/2 years and at the rate they are going the world will come to a end before they finish .

And the highway engineers pull a rabbit out of their hat.
The exit will be out of action, but at least the main roadway will be open.

One problem is to make sure the retaining walls with major possible damage or need for replacement will have to be dealt with as necessary for any temp bridgework to set on.

While they’re doing this, also do some minor road work as needed and connect the on and off ramps on the one side together for addition traffic volume. They’re not needed now as there is no underpass flow.

Using temporary railway flat cars as a bridge is a great option

The government will happily pass up the chance to add another lane in each direction when it would be a lot cheaper and not much more disruptive, if at all.
But soon enough, calls to add lanes will happen, if they haven't already.

Connect the Cottman Off ramp to the Milnor On ramp, and instant northbound bypass... That simple in the one direction. Both are two lanes, both at about same level, just need to remove a fence and connect them... Simple.

Atlanta set the bar at 45 days. Permanent fix. No temporary BS. PA will be far less than stellar at fixing this bridge.

Pretty Cool great idea, I'm shocked they didn't just fill it with crashing cars then pave over it.🤣👍

Both the pyramids and Stone Henge (just to name a couple) were built by filling the ground to the level needed and putting the finished product in place. It’s not rocket science, the process has been around for 10’s of 1, 000’s of years.

Why didn't they reroute the north bound traffic to the exit and entrance ramps adjacent to the highway.

Critics: but why isn't it done instantly?!!!

This is gonna take just as long as a new bridge would with competent planners

So, it's easily another 20 year project on I95

Hurry up, gotta get the fentanyl supply route open ASAP. Dealers are already predicting price gouging.

I know where our bipartisan infrastructure money will be going this year. Well this, and route 80 did get some grass seed.
