Answer: A. Past continuous passive voice

The sentence "The old bridge was being repaired by the workers." is in the passive voice. Here, the subject ("the old bridge") receives the action instead of doing it. The verb phrase "was being repaired" uses the past continuous passive form, while the actual doers ("the workers") are placed at the end after "by" to keep the focus on the bridge.
