Sholem Bridge, Transport bridge in Netanya, Israel

Sholem Bridge is a crossing structure in Netanya that links different parts of the city for both vehicles and foot traffic. The modern construction combines practical function with clean lines, allowing people to move freely between neighborhoods.

The bridge was built in the early 2000s as part of Netanya's growth and effort to connect the expanding city more effectively. Its construction addressed the need for better traffic flow between different parts of the urban area.

The interchange takes its name from Shalom Aleichem Street, which crosses the bridge, and is also called Sapir Interchange after the adjacent industrial zone. It is the only interchange in Israel built by a local authority, Netanya's municipality, through its development and tourism company Halat.

The interchange sits on Route 2 between the Poleg and Netanya interchanges, with diamond and cloverleaf ramps linking the eastern business and technology park and Netanya's new neighbourhoods to Kiryat Nordau and Givat HaIrusim in the west. The northbound exit ramp has an inner entrance leading to Netanya Stadium and a commercial centre. The bridge is lit with LED strips as part of a city project marking main entrances.

It is the only interchange in Israel built by a local authority rather than the national roads company. During construction, a Byzantine-era farmhouse with a colourful mosaic floor was uncovered; the mosaic was moved and now stands near the Victory Monument in Netanya.
