But is this even an issue? An articulated bus is ~45,000 lbs, about the same weight as a semi trailer. From what I can tell here, there are no weight restrictions on 14th meaning heavy trucks drive 14th all the time.

It depends if the pipe is under the road right now or not? If it isn't under the road right now it wouldn't have to be designed for crossing traffic.
Yes you could slab the whole thing but it would more than double the cost of the project. It's a reasonable question to ask and the project engineers should be able to provide an immediate and credible answer to the concern.
The way he's doing it is fear mongering but I would like an answer to the question of has impacts to the pipeline design been considered in the estimate for this project. I've seen it missed before in stuff I've worked on.
