==Construction==
The bridge was designed by [[Jure Radić]], and built by [[Konstruktor]] [[Split (city)|Split]], between 1993 and 1996, using [[free cantilevering]] with temporary cable-stays. The reinforced-concrete arch was executed in {{convert|5|m|abbr=on}} long segments, matching spandrel column spacing. Prefabricated girders required for the structure were executed and prestressed in a purpose built plant on the site. The same plant was subsequently used to produce [[Jersey barrier]]s used as bridge protective barriers.<ref name="Konstruktor-Maslenica">{{cite news | newspaper = Konstruktor | language = Croatian | url = http://www.konstruktor-split.hr/reference/tabid/905/agentType/View/PropertyID/86/sortBy/cf6/PropertyTypeID/7/Default.aspx | title = Konstruktor - Maslenica Bridge | date = June 16, 2010}}</ref>
The bridge is significant as it is the first motorway reinforced-concrete arch bridge comprising a substantial span executed in Croatia.<ref name="Gradimo-MaslenicaA1">{{cite news | newspaper = Gradimo | language = Croatian | url = http://www.gradimo.hr/Autocestovni-most-kod-Maslenice/hr-HR/13058.aspx | title = Motorway bridge near Maslenica | date = January 1, 2007}}</ref>
