At Kettering there seems to be a fairly consistent planned attempt for the cooperation bridge. (Whether is works is a different story however...)

And yes, the second robot pushing the first robot on the bridge works better than each team trying to balance individually. Warning: Less is more. Small baby steps will get you further than plowing straight through.
