Golani Junction

Golani Junction (Hebrew: צומת גולני‎), known as Maskana Junction in Arabic, is a key road junction in the Lower Galilee region of northern Israel, located east of Haifa and west of Tiberias, at the intersection of highways 65 and 77. The Golani Brigade Museum commemorating the Golani Brigade is situated there. The junction experiences frequent traffic congestion on weekends and holidays when many Israelis travel to the north of the country on vacation. An interchange is planned to replace the existing intersection with construction starting sometime in the mid-2010s decade.

Famous quotes containing the word junction:

    In order to get to East Russet you take the Vermont Central as far as Twitchell’s Falls and change there for Torpid River Junction, where a spur line takes you right into Gormley. At Gormley you are met by a buckboard which takes you back to Torpid River Junction again.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
