Transportation Minister Yisrael Katz says he will not change his decision forbidding work on the Yehudit Bridge on Shabbat, adding that the central Ayalon Highway will not be shuttered entirely.
"I will not allow the Ayalon Highway to be blocked in the middle of the week or the weekend for a pedestrian bridge, and I have instructed to do a research project to see how the work can be done during the night," he said.
