bridgeable
Able to connect
Bridgeable describes a gap, distance, or difference that can be crossed or overcome.
Physical chasms may be bridgeable with construction; disagreements are bridgeable through negotiation: The divide between the two factions seemed bridgeable with patience.
The opposite, unbridgeable, suggests an insurmountable separation.
