    The bridge deck is unusual due to its form, which is similar to an "X", crossing at the tower. It is the only bridge in the world that has two curved tracks supported by a single concrete mast. At the end of December lights are put up on the cables and illuminated to create color effects like those on a Christmas tree. The bridge is also lit up on special occasions during the year and is often used for automobile advertisements on television.
