Any closure to any part of the transport network should seek to minimise impacts on all users, but safety should always be the paramount consideration.
In relation to the specific bridge at Eccles Heath in Norfolk, I understand Network Rail took the operational decision to restrict access for safety reasons, and that upon detailed investigation, required significantly more work than initially anticipated.
