Correct, as mentioned seveal places previously, pedestrian access is required for new bridges. Not a big leap to make them MMP's.
For example, the WEST ORANGE TRAIL BRIDGE REPLACEMENT provided a path similar to a MMP across the Turnpike.
I'm predicting the same for the old, south Warm Springs bridge. The power transmission lines were already relocated south.
These changes are budgeted for 5+ years from now.
We can inform people but we can't make them understand ;-)
