This 32m length movable bridge with two lanes host a 1st category street. The bridge intrados is 2.4-3.0 m over the sea level to allow the passage for small boats along the Candiano channel between S. Vitale and city Darsena.

The bridge is split in two equal and symmetrical parts that can rotate around proper hinges arranged on the abutments. It is made by two main steel box trusses connected with steel box secondary beams.

The deck is built up by a reinforced steel plate with trapezoidal steel elements welded to the secondary beams.
