And again, it's a whole army. They just keep anyone at a distance. Heart that's not how it works. Any builders will be completely exposed to archers from the West Bank. Rebuilding a bridge in the middle of the Anduin would be hard enough without constant attack. A bare wooden construction on the ruins of the old stone wouldn't be hard, especially since the supports going down into the riverbed would definitely still be there. Most of the time spent building bridges goes into the supports.

And the "constant attack" is, again, as I've said, on a whole damn army. If you're trying to suggest a group where tens of thousands of men are armed (probably at most ten thousand, but you get the point) can't defend itself, you're quite definitely mistaken. This isn't Minecraft, they'd have to be in or around the river, and you can't position your whole army in the river. Around the river still gives massive amounts of missile support. This is the simplest cannon technology here, not fully mounted swiveling missile launchers.
