Hello dentonny,
why did you delete the short way (https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/20445360)? Bridges usually do not start/end at intersections. This challenge has to be taken with at lot of care, see https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/115795/2. Instead of working on this broken challenge, OSM would much more profit from adding all the missing details like cycleways and sidewalks.
I went ahead and undeleted the way,  added some details and fix some errors, see https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/154018960.
All the best,
skyper
