The Chords Bridge, also known as the Bridge of Strings, is a cantilever spar cable-stayed bridge in Jerusalem, Israel, that will connect the Jerusalem Light Rail lines running east-west on Jaffa Road to the north-south Herzl Boulevard.
Designed by the Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, its construction began in 2007 at a cost of 220 million NIS to the Jerusalem municipality and Israeli government. The bridge was inaugurated on June 25, 2008.
A striking feature of the bridge is a single 118-metre high mast that will constitute the tallest structure in Jerusalem. The bridge is expected to become a tourist attraction and another symbol of Jerusalem, although the light rail project is a year behind schedule and will not be operative until 2010.
