Getting to the Technion by Car:

Directions from Tel Aviv

  1. Turn off the Tel Aviv/Haifa coastal Highway 2 at the first exit for Haifa (signposted Haifa South, MATAM, Tirat Hacarmel).
  2. Bear left and at the first traffic light, turn right.
  3. Make a left turn at the next traffic light. You are now on Flieman Street. You will pass the Haifa Mall (Canyon Haifa) and Castra shopping mall on your right and the Congress Center on your left.
  4. Go straight through two sets of traffic lights and drive up the Carmel mountain for 3 km. Halfway up the road is renamed Weinshal and renamed again Freud Street towards the top. Near the top of the hill, drive straight through another set of traffic lights.
  5. At the top of the hill, Freud St. ends with a T-junction with traffic lights. At the junction, there are two lanes for turning left, and one slip lane for turning right. As you approach these lights, stay in the center lane. At the lights, make a left turn and an immediate right turn at the next light onto Pica Road. Mercaz Horev Shopping Center will be on your immediate right.
  6. Driving down Pica Road, you will drive through four sets of traffic lights. Stay in the right-hand lane as you approach the yellow Paz gas station, and exit right down the slip lane, which is signposted Newe Sha'anan, Technion.
  7. Continue straight on this road (Hankin), stay in the left lane and drive through a short tunnel. (Please note: buses cannot use the tunnel, and should maintain the right lane.)
    After the underpass tunnel, move over to the right-hand lane, and turn right into Komoly Street, signposted (orange) Technion, BEFORE the upcoming traffic lights.
  8. Drive up Komoi St. for about 200m and turn left through the traffic lights onto Malal St.

Getting to the Technion from Hof Hacarmel

There is also a sherut (shared taxi) service which will bring you into the Technion and is cheaper than a private taxi.
