A new single span reinforced concrete beam structure was built here in 1978, by the architect NA Moskvin and engineer LN Sobolev. Facades were created in the form of decorative arches. The Second Park Bridge consists of the span and supports. The oerall length is 21.1 meters, and the width is 16.5 meters. Nearby is the The Third Park bridge, designed to serve the tram traffic through Krestovskogo prospectus.
