    Title: Notify drivers of bridges on route + optional “Avoid bridges” preference
    Description:
    Please add two related features:
    1. Bridge notification — Voice and visual alert when the planned route includes a bridge, giving drivers time to prepare or select an alternate route.
    2. Optional navigation preference — An “Avoid bridges” toggle under Settings → Navigation (similar to Avoid tolls or Avoid ferries). Options for “all bridges” or “major bridges only” would be ideal.
    Even the notification alone would help a lot. Many drivers have requested this over the years. Thank you for considering it.

    I can’t understand why this addition is not a given. You have a warning about tunnels but not about bridges. You should have both in preference just like avoid tolls. Millions suffer from bridge phobia and even when looking at routes it may not be aware that US 285 for instance has a bridge on that route. This would be so easy for you and a big help for users.
