 Ok, I know how to create a bridge with both ends in the same city, but how do I make a bridge with one end in one city and the other end in another city? 

City 1 Land City 1 Water City 2 Water City 2 Land
----^====================^------

Here ________ to _______ Here

That's not possible. As a workaround, you could create a small island on the city border where you set up the neighbor connection.

    As far as I know, no. You might be able to hide it in the region view if you used some plopable water. PEG's most resent one is good, but depending on your water mod, you might need to look around for one that matches the color of your water.

    I doubt one will ever be made, there is no way to detect the land in the other city. City connection only go into the other city a few tiles.

    However using the Boston Big Dig mod you can make a tunnel. Because these lots convert the road traffic to subway traffic you can then drag the subway tunnel across the water and through the two tiles of water and end up at the other city. Wether the sims will actually use the tunnel is another story.

    LOL!

    EDIT: Whoa its late. I'll try it tomorrow. 

    EDIT: Eh, I can't find the mod. I found a forum topic that had a blank first post and 60 pages of other posts...

    I can not seem to find it either, but here it is at the LEX and sc4devotion.com. You'll need an account for the LEX to get it.
