The bridge consists of four long spans embedded into three slender reinforced concrete piers. The abutments are integrated into existing or new walls, creating continuity with the built environment of the city. In this way, an integral bridge (without joints at piers) is obtained.
Translucent composite materials (GFRP)-(Fiberglass) have been used in the form of structural floor panels and wall panels for both the railing and the flooring.
The structure is designed with a double composite action. The steel box girder was assembled using temporary support.
