Pretty impressive fire fighting team that didn't let this huge box of dried out timber burn to the ground.

$1million in damage. Probably pocket change to the owner.

It's a big bridge. Maybe they replace more sections.

Every section of the bridge that is pulled off goes through a thorough engineering analysis that lasts months or longer to determine the vulnerabilities and help inform for future engineering. They are constantly replacing them too, which is a several year process.
