Bridges, Modi'in | Emek Ayalon

Modi'in is designed with a hierarchy of roads. Local roads are located in valleys with open space, and major arterial roads cross over valleys with as little disturbance to the natural open space as possible resulting in a number of long span bridges for road and rail. The design principle was to have as long an uninterrupted span as technical possible, to allow the bridge to visually "float" over the landscape. Therefore the location and modulation of columns supporting the bridge is a significant design consideration. Three examples completed by the Firm include:

• Bridge Road 431
• Bridge Road 20
• Bridge Road 3
