Bikers are light. A bike and pedestrian tall bridge makes more sense. And it can double as tourist attraction. See London's Millenium Bridge.


A bridge across the Thames needs to be very tall to allow ships to pass underneath. Or have the ability to open up for ship traffic like Tower Bridge. This is why tunnels are likely to be cheaper/easier.
