The bridge had completed a key load test on August 25. The load test, considered the final step before the bridge welcomes traffic \u2014 included both static and dynamic tests. The testing team drove 96 trucks, weighing about 3,300 tons in total, onto designated points of the deck in batches to measure displacement and stress in the main span, towers, cables and suspenders.
