If the bridge was no longer there why wasn't there massive unmovable concrete barriers in the road?

I was as baffled as you are, until I law the location it happened.

Well, could you link it? What about the location makes it obvious that they didn't plate unmovable concrete barriers?

Wow, looking through the 10 year old street view images I couldn’t even see the bridge at first, it’s not very large, the type you likely drive over every day without even thinking of it as a bridge. That’s a disaster waiting to happen, looks like any street. At speed it could be bad during the day, nobody expects to be driving along and suddenly the road is gone. At night impossible. I’m surprised this is the first time it’s happened, if it hasn’t happened before.
