A semiconductor device comprises conductive buses and conductive bridges. A respective conductive bridge is conductively coupled to at least two portions of at least one of the conductive buses. At least N plus one (N+1) vias are coupled between every one of the conductive bridges and a respective feature in an integrated circuit when: (1) a width of the respective conductive bridge is less than a width of each of the at least two portions of the at least one of the conductive buses to which the respective conductive bridge is coupled, and (2) a distance along the respective conductive bridge and at least one of the vias is less than a critical distance. N is a number of conductive couplings between the respective one of the conductive bridges and the at least one of the conductive buses.
