The river supports consisted of metal piles with a wooden superstructure and the abutments were made of stone and lined with brick.

An Overhaul brick bridge was conducted in 1855 and in 1888. In 1908, when the new railway bridge crossing the bypass channel was being constructed, the Brick Bridge was dismantled. After that the Volkovka river bed was moved downstream on the Bypass channel, a New Brick bridge was built, its design reminiscent of its predecessor. The New Brick bridge was built with the assistance of the Office of Nikolaev railway.

The Modern Novo-brick bridge (Ново-Кирпичного мост) was built in 1926 on the site of the old bridge, designed by engineers OE Bugaeva and BD Vasiliev and was the first reinforced concrete bridge, built in the Soviet Leningrad.

In the early 1960s, the area became intensely developed and the bridge could no longer serve the increasing number of vehicles. In 1965 a modern concrete bridge girder trёhproletny-cutting system bridge was built, by engineer A. Kulikov and architect L. Noskov. It is a reinforced concrete beams design. The bridge piers and abutments are made ​​of reinforced concrete on pile foundations.

The deck and sidewalks are paved with asphalt. The metal railing featrues spiral grilles, which are set between metal tubes.
