No. The only Gate Repair that should be done at a minimum is the Anchor Tendons + structural repairs to existing cracks. They don't have enough time to do a "major gate replacement". (assuming this is what your question is asking i.e. Full Radial Gates, Trunnions, Head Structure, or combination thereof etc).
Well, California DWR has to have some crisis for 2018 to look forward to in the grasping of Federal Funds and the mantra of Constant Water Crisis.
However, this too (bridge) may be a logistical & time consuming project to execute.
In the original construction of the Spillway, there were two land crossings at the elevation of the spillway chute grade before the upper & lower spillway sections were completed. Of course, the Flood Control Structure was not completed at that time and thus there was no bridge available.
Since the Main Spillway needs to be inoperative during the reconstruction & repair, they could use a temporary access road across the erosion canyon exit channel next to the Feather river. This would eliminate the logistics, cost, and time for an upper spillway west access heavy crossing use item (i.e. no separate bridge) alleviating the necessity of using the Flood Control Structure bridge.
