The cable-stayed bridge has a main span of 381 m and a navigational clearance of 53 m. Each of the two beams is 24 m wide and comprises a steel grid from exterior main girders and cross-girders, all built from plate girders, with a concrete roadway slab on top. The twin concrete towers with a double diamond shape rise 130 m above ground.
