they are covered to keep the snow off of them, keeping them from being slippery so that folks don't slide off into the river.

Back in the day when transportation was by horse only, if snow or rain got onto a bridge and a horse came across pulling a cart it would be too slippery and the horse would slip and break a leg.
They put covers over them to keep them dry so the horses could pass.
Snow + bare wood = Slick as hell.
