Maybe, but if that was the case, I suspect they'd be needing to replace it then, given that the bridge is used for park service vehicles.
I'd guess keeping the 3 ton work trucks off the bridge will extend the life of the bridge. They can still drive the gators over to the island. Also it's a fairly unique historical bridge that merits conservation rather than just replacing it so trucks can drive over.
