The bridge is unique in that most of its length runs along the river, not across it (see the site plan[3]). Thus the bridge and highway it carries will bypass the protected territory of Serebryany Bor island.
The total length of an S-shaped deck exceeds 1.5 kilometers, including a 409.5-meter long, 47-meter wide main section running 30 meters above and along the centerline of river Moskva.[4] The main pylon is a 105-meter high arch across the river, carrying the weight of deck through 78 cables
Under the top of the arch, there is a disk-like structure that was intended to house a restaurant. The restaurant project is now abandoned due to fire safety concerns and a lack of investment.
