Train bridge over Ayalon Valley

The Train bridge over Ayalon Valley is a concrete railway structure that rises approximately 40 meters above the terrain and spans across the valley with multiple structural sections. It provides the rail connection linking the country's two largest cities across the valley landscape.

The structure was completed in 2008 and forms a key section of the modern rail line connecting the country's two main cities. It represents a turning point in how rail transport developed within the nation.

The bridge carries a Hebrew name that reflects its role as a transport link in the Ayalon Valley. It connects two major parts of the country and serves daily passengers traveling between the two largest urban centers.

The bridge is used by trains running on regular schedules throughout the day, with multiple daily connections between the two city centers. The best views come from nearby vantage points or from aboard the trains themselves if you plan a trip beforehand.

The bridge is identified as Structure Number 8 on the rail line and stands as one of the more notable infrastructure projects of its time. Engineers selected concrete construction specifically to span the valley while minimizing impact on the surrounding landscape.
