It included a 66-meter-long, 46-meter-wide bridge, a 450-meter-long road tunnel, two U-turn lanes, four underground pedestrian crossings, and a 950-meter loop exit ramp. In addition, 9.5 kilometers of pedestrian and bicycle paths were laid, eight public transport stops were equipped, 240 outdoor lighting poles were installed, and 6 kilometers of road barriers were erected.
