The paved stone bridges as you call them are just walls and floors. They have nothing on them indicating that they are a bridge.

The initial screenshots showed bridges on a fort entry in the hills.

Animations... ha, no. XD The drawbridges in the game are so nonsensical, I have no idea how they would even close. A stone bridge, 10 tiles wide without any chains or ropes anywhere, raises up to a 1 tile wall? ^^

My head canon was that the bridges folded up like a paper fan along hinges.  They extended along collapsing rails on either side. If a certain side was designated to have it extend from, the initial "fan" section met the floor instead of the usual: it would swing down from the ceiling before unfurling.

Nah… they work like tape measures.
