Let's not forget that the east approach to the bridge won't meet current roadway standards, so trying to align that angle would be hugely expensive, which is why rebuilding the old bridge makes sense.

I've missed it since it was a good quick link for commuters between downtown and the university. During morning rush hour Oxford is a traffic nightmare and Riverside isn't much better.
