  -> Merci.
agree  Monique Laville: passerelle aérienne: http://www.samuel-holland.com/fr/commercial_complexe.asp

  -> Merci. En effet l'expression "passerelle aérienne" est plus précise. Il ne reste qu'à suggérer qu'elle est fermée au vent -> "passerelle aérienne fermée".

tunnel surélevé


Explanation:
passerelle couverte me plait bien mais "in quota" (sauf erreur) a une notion d'altitude. Tout dépend de ce que l'on veut transmettre dans le texte.
