What's wrong with bridges?
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3425848198
I've built this one and nobody used it, so being as it stayed red from setting down the blueprint for the bridge before I bought the territory, I tore down the bridge and placed a new onethat worked temporarily, now it's not passable again, now only the start of the newly placed bridge is white but still villagers will not pass over it and I get messages about how my iron miners can't get to their destination.

When I click on the bridge it's got a flower and states nothing to report.

What's going on with this bridge?

I tried it again, destroyed the completed bridge and had a new one built but the pathing errors came back, is this a joke, what is the trick to get them to officially use them, I've seen the fisherman in the middle of the bridge and assumed he was fishing there and when I deleted the bridge he got stuck on the island until I fired him from the fisheries and then he teleported and I reassigned him.

Not sure if it's the issue, but it looks like the end points of the bridge are under the ground.
When building a bridge you should be able to control elevation.. If you have the patience and time, check if it works by raising the bridge a step or two.

I've built a lot of bridges but had little issue.. But i do have one right now that i noticed people not taking. Since there were other ways to take, i just blocked them off to see what happens. But i also noticed that one of the end points are under ground. So what i just suggested for you will be my next step :P
Okay, thanks, I'll try that.

I actually found out i had two bridges with the same issue. What i suggested worked on one of the bridges on my first try. The other bridge didn't. I think it's just about finding the right setting, which should be easier for you.
My bridges was down a mountain (acting as stairs) and already around a lot of existing infrastructure. So i didn't have too much room to mess around with with that second bridge. Fortunately it wasn't strictly needed, just a bit of a shortcut xD
Destroyed the bridge again and rebuilt and again nobody but the fisherman would use it and I'm still not sure why he stands in the center of the bridge instead of getting in his boat to fish but having a new iron mine the worker would still just show he couldn't path to work.

I tried to raise and lower the bridge but it never completely shows a perfect landing, so that leaves me now thinking the game isn't properly checking whether a bridge can be used before allowing it to be built.

Another bug maybe?

I finally gave up and sold back the territory and used the iron mine after buying another territory with one close by.
