I mean, it's the time to get an inspector off of bed, on the road, to the site, and for them to go “yup, bridge's still there” and call back...
For a “once in decades” event you would normally expect that people aren’t really on call to respond in a few minutes.
Network Rail have emergency response crews.
In reality though they’re responsible, so they’re going to do a proper assessment regardless.
