How much does it cost to build a bridge over all the current interstates?

From the contractor's perspective? At least a dollar.

Less than you might think. Just extend all the interstate highways beyond their termini via unsigned multiplexes with existing interstates so they are all eventually concurrent with I-44 on the Will Rogers Turnpike, then the already-existing Will Rogers Archway will do the trick.

Total cost: a few hours' pay for whatever AASHTO secretary needs to revise all the interstate logs.
Never eat anything bigger than your own head.

Some people would only build tunnels, so zero dollars for bridges.

How About building a bridge over all the North American Interstate Highway System, in all 15 North American countries, the countries will be, the U.S., Mexico, Canada, Alaska, Yukon, Northwest Terrtiories, Nunavut, Quebec, Greenland, Iceland, Alanland, Hawaii, Bermuda, Belize, and Saint Pierre and Miquelon.

Why doesn't Canada have an Interstate system like America does?
