The Bridge Of Khazad-dum - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

The bridge was big enough to let men cross more or less fast and comfortably, and the Balrog was of "man-shape, yet greater", so, yes. The Balrog was already standing on the bridge, too. If it got narrower towards the middle, he might have had to leap.
And though I consider it unlikely, I would not categorily rule out the possibility that he might have been able to fly.
