It looks like the new bridge includes bike lanes.

It looks like the current bridge uses concrete girders.
Yep, I think they are concrete girders.

posted two photos with the comment: "Anybody got any info about this bridge in Cameron AZ? Any details of why it’s closed off?"
Patrick O'Donnell: Basically became outdated and bypassed by the nearby bridge. Bought by a gas company to run the pipeline across...
Nick Jones: Lol ... love this factoid ... The bridge was damaged by an overload of sheep in 1937, when it almost collapsed.[2] The damage was repaired and the bridge served highway traffic until 1959.
