There is definitely not enough room to accommodate a 20 mph cyclist on the bridge, especially sense cars are going 35+ mph over that bridge. And there is definitely not enough room to pass a cyclist comfortably on the road. I have always crossed the bridge on the sidewalk and have never had a problem, and it really isn't that difficult to go slow on the sidewalk and stop and let others pass. just be safe. I don't think it is necessary to walk your bike across the bridge though.
