| Abstract: |
The 170 million USD Road 1 Motsa Bridge near Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, Israel is part of the major highway system and is the main road into Jerusalem. It is one of the most important infrastructure projects carried out by the Ministry of Transport and Roads Company in the past several years. The project faced a major challenge due to an accident during construction that resulted in a total revision of the construction sequence. |
