According to the link you provided the highway fund expired on September 30, 2005. It is now 2007. You are dabating with "has been" data that is not directly related to current situations.
That bridge didn't become defective in the last two years. It was in need of repair long before the fund expired. Further, the existence or absence of the fund does not remove the responsibility of the individual states to repair roads and bridges. The Fund was not the sole (or even primary) source of revenue for such repairs.
