Yehudit Bridge

Yehudit Bridge, Pedestrian bridge in Tel Aviv, Israel

Yehudit Bridge is a single-span steel pedestrian and cyclist bridge over the Ayalon highway and Nahal Ayalon in Tel Aviv. It is 110 metres long, 11 metres wide and about 15 metres high, built from roughly 1,400 tonnes of steel. A wooden-decked cycle path and footpath are separated by a rest area with street furniture and bicycle parking. It links Yehudit Boulevard in the Montefiore neighbourhood with the Alon Towers in western Bitzaron.

Planning began in 2010 and the Tel Aviv local committee approved the plan in 2014; Oron Group and the metalworks ha-Giv'a won the 2017 tender. Work started in September 2017 at a cost of 68 million shekels. After ultra-Orthodox parties protested Sabbath work, transport minister Yisrael Katz halted the beam-laying; the city petitioned the High Court, and laying resumed on 25 January 2019. The bridge opened on 20 January 2020, about six months late.

The bridge's name honours Judith Montefiore, wife of Moses Montefiore, after whom the adjacent Yehudit Boulevard is named. In 2020 the city renamed it for President Yitzhak Navon, prompting petitions, a Facebook campaign and a protest on International Women's Day to restore the original name. In May 2025 the council cancelled the Navon naming, but the bridge has no official name for now.

The deck is 11 metres wide and about 15 metres above the Ayalon lanes, with a wooden-floored cycle track and footpath separated by a rest area with street furniture and bicycle parking. The bridge has no direct link to HaShalom railway station to its north, so allow extra time for that connection.

The bridge's official name became a local controversy: opened in January 2020 as Yitzhak Navon Bridge, it had been known during planning as Yehudit Bridge, after Judith Montefiore. A petition by Dr. Shlomit Lir and a Facebook group demanded the original name, and in May 2025 the Tel Aviv council cancelled the Navon naming, though the bridge has not been formally renamed Yehudit.
