Many of those ped bridges with the big loops don't meet current code because the slope is too steep - you can keep them if you have them already (like some of Calgary's LRT Stations, mainly NE), but you'd never be able to build one like that now.

Not saying you need to build a huge one like they did, which many mistook for an actual on-ramp, but ped bridges now need to have larger footprints by design just to meet the grade/access requirements
