The bridge is supported by elastomeric bearings and is brought into the correct position by a centering element in the middle in the process of movement. When closing the bridge two Oleo buffers are provided in addition to the elastomeric bearings.
The entire onshore connection is realized as a very light and removable design, so that in the event of a general overhaul of the existing shore walls and an envisaged widening of the road on the embankment beside the north abutment, the onshore ramp can be easily removed and modified.
