They have a number of categories, but two are relevant here:
Highway or Railway Bridge Structures
King Abdul Aziz Flyover
Taizhou Bridge
Walton Bridge
Surely an easy winner for the pioneering Taizhou Bridge (pictured below)?
Pedestrian Bridges
Anaklia-Ganmukhuri Pedestrian Bridge
Castle Green Bridge
Olympic Park Footbridge
Pembroke College Footbridge
Teign Crossing Cycle Bridge
A couple of these were new to me. I'd seen the lovely little Castle Green bridge before, but really it's exaggerating to call it a bridge at all. The Pembroke College bridge is a charming little curio, but my vote would go to the Anaklia-Ganmukhuri Pedestrian Bridge (pictured below), proof that timber can be exploited in ways most engineers would never consider.
