The girder bridge was built with a single superstructure for both carriage ways, and is positioned approximately a kilometer to the north of Wasserbillig in Luxembourg.

The bridge has a steel superstructure of a constant level underpinned by a continuous support.

The horizontal profile of the support floor is 8.87 m (29.1 ft) wide.

The steel of the superstructure used the incremental launch method, employing a machine using 21 pushing devices.

In order to be able to use this method over the long spans of the bridge without the need for temporary supports from below, a 58 m (190.3 ft) high cable bearing moving pylon was employed, mounted on the road deck and set 120 m (393.7 ft) back from the tip of the slowly advancing structure.
