A bridge in Death Stranding 2 can be a useful tool for traversal as you make your cargo delivery from one location to another.

Building a bridge in Death Stranding 2 explained

Follow the given steps to construct a bridge in Death Stranding 2:

Use the terminals in the Distribution Centers to craft a PCC Level 1 before you head out.
When you want to build a bridge, open your backpack and find the PCC, and navigate till you find the option.
Press L1 to start a hologram and place it on the correct spot where you want your bridge
Press R2 to start the construction. Keep adding Metals to complete the bridge
For a 30m long bridge, you will need around 600x Metals, while for a 45m one, you will need 800x.

In case you do not have the required material to build a bridge, you can use Signs in Death Stranding 2 to ask for Metals from other players.
