It's more like, the bridges, as built, allow for 5 ton vehicles. Decades go by with no repairs/improvements. Someone finally does an inspection and goes "this thing is half rusted through and there's huge gaps between the slabs". So they have to lower the max capacity vehicles to 2 tons to avoid a catastrophic collapse, meaning in essence no trucks.

They're just trying to get the bridges back to their originally designed limits.

Yeah, this is my understanding of it. The "weight limits" he's referring to are lower ones imposed later due to disrepair. The point is to fix the bridges back up so you don't need those lower limits anymore.
