That's an odd failure. At first I thought the supports at either end failed but it's very unlikely they would do so both at the same time. It looks like the suspension elements in the middle failed allowing the centre of the roadway to fall, dragging the end supports inwards and the whole thing toppled down. The arch itself looks intact.
 
That lorry driver is so very unlucky to be that close to the other side.

Must have been surreal.
