Balls can, and will, get trapped under the bridge. The only way to clear them is to tilt the bridge. If you can only push the bridge down, then you must clear the ball from the other side of the bridge.

I forsee teams that can only traverse the barrier using the bridge getting trapped and be unable to balance at endgame.
