A public meeting on pedestrian and cyclist safety will take place at Magid Community Center on Thursday, November 5, 2026, at 6 p.m. It is part of Tel Aviv-Yafo’s Road Safety Week, November 1-6, alongside student art displays, children’s shows and educational activities.
The Magid meeting will cover plans and investment in infrastructure, traffic calming and street safety. Students’ road-safety drawings will be displayed at five locations: Magen David Square, the entrance to Jaffa Port, Herbert Samuel Promenade, Dizengoff Square and Culture Square at Habima.
Six shows for children and families are planned around the city. One is “The Golden Rabbit in the Big City” (Arnav HaZahav Ba’Ir HaGedola), at Nofei Yam Community Center, 5 Yitzhak Bashevis Singer Street, on Monday, November 2, at 5 p.m. A craft activity follows. Participation is free. Register for the Nofei Yam show.
A practical cycling workshop for ages 18 and up will also take place that week, on Wednesday, November 4, starting at 5:30 p.m. Participants meet in Rabin Square by the fishpond and the steps down from City Hall, opposite 19 Malkhei Yisrael Street. The session lasts about 1.5-2 hours and covers urban bike paths and intersections, basic bike checks and locking techniques, among other topics.
The workshop costs NIS 30, or NIS 15 with the Digitel benefit. Participants need a working bicycle, a helmet and closed-toe shoes, and should bring water. Advance registration and confirmation are required, and late arrivals cannot join. Register for the cycling workshop.
School activities include walks, talks by people injured in traffic crashes and demonstrations of truck blind spots. Online sessions will address riding and protective equipment. The professional conference opening the week on November 1 is by invitation only.
