EnglishUse of Phrasal Verbs
- Aon
- Bover
- Cacross
- Ddown
Explanation
The phrasal verb needed is 'cross over', meaning to go from one side to the other; the bridge lets people 'cross over to the other side'. 'Cross across' is redundant since 'cross' already contains the idea of going across. 'Cross on' and 'cross down' are not idiomatic here. 'Over' completes the standard expression.
