- Let's look at the sentence and options to find the most suitable replacement for "(connecting)".

- The sentence describes a bridge that existed before being destroyed.

- Option 1: connected - Correct tense to indicate past action where the bridge connected the cities before destruction.

- Option 2: has connecting - Grammatically incorrect. "Has" requires a past participle, not a present participle.

- Option 3: connects - Present tense, indicates current action, doesn't fit as the bridge has been destroyed.

- Option 4: will be connecting - Future continuous tense, unsuitable as the bridge no longer exists.
