The police told Lai Pa:
Carmel Police completed their preparations for the "race against the clock", as part of the 2026 Israel Road Cycling Championship, which will be held tomorrow, Saturday, 27.06.26.
As part of the race, dozens of police officers, volunteers, and inspectors will be deployed along the routes, with the aim of maintaining the safety of participants, public order, and directing traffic.
Traffic regulations:
On Saturday, between 05:00 AM and 10:00 AM, Highway 2 will be closed northbound, in the section between the Atlit Interchange and the Zichron Yaakov Interchange, for the purpose of holding the race.
Alternative axes:
Drivers coming from north to south, wishing to continue south, will be directed at the Atlit Interchange to Route 721 heading east, and from there to Route 4 heading south.
The Israel Police recommends that the driving public stay updated in real time using various navigation apps, obey the instructions of the police officers stationed on site, and prepare accordingly.
I've participated in dozens of road races in the past, but in this heat?!
No, thank you!
I wonder if they will remove the burned-out vehicle that has been standing there for months – this is a third world country.
Towards the south, not towards the north.
You are confusing!!!
In the title, Highway 2 northbound will be closed…
And in the article you specify that the race is heading south from Atlit to Zichron…
Can you decide and be precise?
Planning to travel north on the 2 at this time tomorrow.
