One possible solution if the problem is caused by updrafts is to replace the deck with grating.

Was it design or installation problems, though? I don't believe that has been or can be confirmed yet. I'll admit I don't know how a cable stay bridge would normally fail in a case like this, but it's a little early to be saying it's guaranteed to be a design issue over something improperly installed.
