The two-section beam of the span structure is 12.6 meters wide and 4.6 meters high. 4.2-meter-wide consoles are suspended on the sides. Thus, the total width is 21 meters. On the bridge 4 lanes for vehicles. Under the bridge - paths for bicycles and pedestrians.
The design with a diameter of 32 meters at the top of the pylon attracts attention. At an altitude of 85 meters is a restaurant called UFO (ie UFO). It is connected to the observation deck. An elevator in the left support leads to it. On the right - emergency stairs for 430 steps. UFO is one of the dominants of the city. About 200.000 tourists visit it every year.
