Animal crossing bridges are a great idea, because now all we have to do is teach animals how to read maps and signs so they can find the damn things, amirite?
This was my initial reaction too, but if you look it up these have actually existed since 1996. They monitor it in banff, (A park I live by) it's been reported that over 200,000 animals have used it since 1996. In banff alone.
The only way to really make that would be to completely cover the road with them. At that point, why not just put the road underground? No one's going to pay enough money for that.

yeah, but that figure pales into insignificance when compared to the other 800,000 who still die on the road...hahaha just kidding
It IS a good idea, because whether or not most animals will realize that they can use it, some of them will.
