The ballasted track can dance around a little bit, and the bridge has a steep vertical curve to it. Another reason why it's ballasted here is weight. Ballasted track weighs per cubic unit than embedded track, and the bridge was already existing. Even with the modifications to the bridge to strengthen it, it was only enough to support ballasted track, not embedded.
