That would be the cause of the disruptive alterations. It's generally
frowned upon to build a new bridge over an operating motorway...

They did it with CTRL and the QE2 bridge so why not elsewhere ?


In case I wasn't clear above, I meant "over a motorway without closing
the motorway for the duration of the bridge-building". Obviously you
can build a bridge over a motorway, but you can't do it without
disrupting traffic, which is what the original "why would it require
any at all" question was about.
