I have compiled some screenshots to show you how to convert a bridge.

First drag the Platform (Platform by gfisher in use)

Then insert spline points, ensuring correct deck height.

Make sure it is correctly aligned.

This is platform by gfsher is perfect because it is the right width.
The Marias Pass bridge works the best.
I have started this thread due to the fact that many people have PMed me and asked me to send them this.

Enjoy!

A tried and true technique, used by many a creator. But this is not a performance friendly technique. The more splines in given scene the slower the performance due to the game engine and the way it render splines. The best way is either with a single proper spline or with a scenery item that is a single object.

At least there's brownie points for the attempt.
 
You can also clone the bridge then open the config file and change the bridgetrack KUID to whatever road/path you want, maybe the name too so you find it easy. Less work in Surveyor. Just get permission if looking to upload somewhere and make sure the road/path fits the bridge.
 
I also remember a spline ( or something to that effect) thats a white line, default I think in Surveyor, that would divide the path to make sides. ;)

Keep it up...GJ
