Exposure to raw sewage (albeit much diluted) is likely to be a significant risk for people, not structurally for the buildings any more than exposure to the water itself is.
Damage from things hitting buildings and structures is governed by the intensity of the flooding, bridges are by their nature mid stream so particularly prone.
