Off topic but rare build for a highway - https://goo.gl/maps/Tsongm3m1rrQ4cDN7

Even older bridges I've seen here have fences! https://goo.gl/maps/WEYHiDXVrcF4TEcY8

Sometimes? Based on what you provided, are these fences on bridges a southeast thing, because these types of fences on bridges are very uncommon in general based on my observations, even on high-foot traffic bridges like those that carry dedicated hiking & biking trails. Any ol' guardrail will do.

They're common in Massachusetts.

High foot traffic? Where's the foot traffic in those GSVs?  Hell, where would they even walk from and to in at least 2 of those links?

New Jersey usually will install fences - usually curved - on any overpass where there is a sidewalk or shoulder where pedestrians could be present.  They usually aren't installed on highways in which an overpass is over another roadway.
