The structure actually consists of three parallel bridges, two for motor vehicles and one for light rail, bicycles, and pedestrians.

The first two parts were opened on March 24, 2012 making it the eighth road bridge in the capital of Poland, and it is now complete with the first tram line launched 21 January 2013.

The work was carried out by Pol-Aqua in cooperation with Spanish group Sando and Kromiss-Bis.

However, on 1 December 2011, the bridge name was officially changed to Maria Skłodowska-Curie Bridge to honor the Polish double Nobel Prize winner, against the opinions of citizens and District Councils of both Bielany and Białołęka districts.

At this point the interchange connects five multi-lane streets, three tramway lines and junctions for local roads.
