They will likely choose the least damaged side of the highway then do a quick patch repair and run both west/east traffic on the two lanes (truck traffic restricted). Then they'll focus on fixing the other side properly, move traffic to that side when done, then fix the other side properly then open fully. Only a guess though based on how I've seen other washouts done.
Could be temporarily opened in 1-2 days once dried out and bridge passes inspection. I'd plan an alternate via Hwy 3 or Jasper just in case.
