Yeah, although I don't really like hunting and pecking around for heavy bridges...it would sure be nice if there were an option to highlight them better on the map (perhaps there is and I haven't found it).  Or a mod would work I guess.

A  mod is the best way to go. I used a nice mod for Bulge where its kinda critical knowing where all the heavy bridges are. It used colours which I modified. You might have to trial and error to find best colour combination. I found white for heavies to work well.

But that was for the old 2DFeatures100 map file. You would need to change the new zoom 200 map file.

That's a great idea! Inspired me to color some bridges   Smile

That looks pretty good to me. White definitely is the best colour as it stands out well. I went with yellow for medium but green for light. 

The new 200 zoom level which replaces the old doubling of the 100 level is pretty sharp but I sometimes find it 'too sharp' for my old eyes for some reason so I'd probably have to add in more coloured pixels to the width.

Bulge has heavy bridges on secondary roads as well.
