Road 722 is a US$68.9 million project in Haifa awarded to Danya-Cebus. The project’s twin precast segmental bridges have a total length of 314m and six spans. The Road 722 Bridge is said to be based on the same cross section and erection method that Finley developed for Danya-Cebus and used on the Road 431 project (5 bridges), the Section 18 Interchange (6 bridges); and the Benyamina Bridge (2 bridges) segmental bridge construction projects in Israel totalling $471 million.
Road 65/85 Nahal Amud & Nahal Acbara Bridges in Galilee is a $250 million project awarded to Shikun & Binui -
The project’s bridges are precast concrete segmental bridges with three spans that will be 25m above the valley floor. The bridge design is said to be sensitive to the specific landscaping and historic value of the area. Nahal Amud bridges are twin six span bridges with a total length of 338m. Nahal Acbara bridges are twin three span bridges with a total length of 120m. Both bridges are said by Finley to be designed to accommodate future widening of the bridge.
Finally, the $170 million Road 1 Motzha Bridge near Jerusalem and Tel Aviv was awarded to Cebus-Rimon Industrialised Construction. Because this route is part of the major highway system and the main road into Jerusalem, it is one of the most important infrastructure projects that will be carried out by the Ministry of Transport and Roads Company in the coming years.
The challenging project is adjacent to religious archeological sites between two tunnels and the segmental bridge design is said by Finley to provide a method for building a structure with no impact to the culturally significant area. The completed project will see the creation of two 800m precast segmental bridges with three lanes in each direction.
