I disagree it shows that by asking 20 to 30 firms to submit options for the bridge you get a few amazing designs to choose from that are equal or better to the fancy bridge designer and you get choice instead of being stuck with one option
As for the bridges my favourites are:
Halcrow The Reach
Associated Engineering option 1
Rosales and Schlaich
Dejong
Busby Perkins
Though not one of my favourites I perfer Rogers Stirk Harbour Bridge to the Calatavara
