What if a bridge was made whenever a road and railway cross each other as well?

For MA terrains there is a rule about supply routes not crossing one another or themselves. If that happens the terrain has to be altered before it can be approved by HTC.

Is that true in the new engine as well or is it possible that it might have changed?

I think it is something to do with the trucks/trains getting confused, but I could be wrong about that. As for the new version, I have as much knowledge about the new terrain as any other player.

I think having the TE build road/railway bridges over water would add some extra visual appeal. However there is another reason for doing it. An MA map designer could put a river near a base as a barrier for GVs and then route the supply road across the river. The bridge would then make a good choke point for GV action. GVs would need to be aware of the truck convoy's timing though.
