Jerusalem Chords Bridge
Updated:
The newest addition to the Jerusalem skyline, a cantilever spar cable-stayed bridge called the Jerusalem Chords Bridge[a]. It was intended to mark the entrance to Jerusalem where the Sderot Ben Gurion highway reaches Ets Haim. As the Sderot Ben Gurion branches off Highway 1, the main highway connecting Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, the bridge is quite prominent. The other purpose of the bridge was to carry the light rail that is intended to begin operating in Jerusalem.
