There is a bridge construction site behind the yellow and red in the second picture with a large crane. It is possible that there was a delivery to there and the truck needed to turn around to get out. On the upside, they have diggers there constantly moving the gravel for the crane to move along the river bed so the heavy equipment is there to free the truck up....The crane could almost have lifted the truck back onto the bridge....
The bridge is getting two lanes added to make it Three lanes in each direction. And the lanes are going in the middle between the existing lanes so the concrete slabs(?) has to be lifted up and over the current deck.

While you dont see the bridge in this one you can see the extent of the work they are undertaking...
