The 3 at row 1, column 7 needs 3, and its neighbors can take 3 at most. So it takes all of them: one bridge to the 1 at row 1, column 9 and two bridges to the 5 at row 3, column 7.
The 4 at row 1, column 14 needs 4, and its neighbors can take 4 at most. So it takes all of them: two bridges to the 2 at row 1, column 12 and two bridges to the 5 at row 7, column 14.
The 1 at row 2, column 13 needs 1 more, and only the 3 at row 2, column 11 can still take bridges. So it gets one bridge to the 3 at row 2, column 11.

Suppose the 3 at row 3, column 4 and the 5 at row 3, column 7 shared two bridges. Following the rules from there breaks one, so they don’t. The 3 at row 3, column 4 needs 1 more, and only the 6 at row 5, column 4 can still take bridges. So it gets a second bridge to the 6 at row 5, column 4.
The 5 at row 3, column 7 needs 1 more, and only the 2 at row 7, column 7 can still take bridges. So it gets one bridge to the 2 at row 7, column 7.
The 3 at row 7, column 4 needs 1 more, and only the 6 at row 5, column 4 can still take bridges. So it gets a second bridge to the 6 at row 5, column 4.
The 5 at row 5, column 2 needs 1 more, and only the 5 at row 10, column 2 can still take bridges. So it gets a second bridge to the 5 at row 10, column 2.
Suppose the 5 at row 10, column 2 and the 4 at row 10, column 7 shared two bridges. Following the rules from there breaks one, so they don’t. The 5 at row 10, column 2 needs 1 more, and only the 3 at row 13, column 2 can still take bridges. So it gets a second bridge to the 3 at row 13, column 2.
The 4 at row 10, column 7 needs 1 more, and only the 2 at row 14, column 7 can still take bridges. So it gets one bridge to the 2 at row 14, column 7.
The 2 at row 13, column 6 needs 1 more, and only the 3 at row 11, column 6 can still take bridges. So it gets one bridge to the 3 at row 11, column 6.
The 3 at row 11, column 9 needs 1 more, and only the 3 at row 14, column 9 can still take bridges. So it gets a second bridge to the 3 at row 14, column 9.
