A series of NEXT concerts at the National Stadium in Ramat Gan, scheduled from October 11-18 and on October 22, are expected to cause significant traffic congestion in the central region of Israel. Disruptions will primarily occur during two main periods: before the shows, from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, and after their conclusion, from 10:30 PM to midnight.

During the evening hours, Operationקדש Bridge will be closed as needed. In Tel Aviv, access from the Raul Wallenberg-Sheerit intersection will be blocked from the north, with traffic rerouted to Sheerit Street, which will be closed before the tunnel. In Bnei Brak, traffic will be halted from Umm Al-Fahm towards Sheshet HaYamim and Operationקדש, and passage in front of the Bnei Brak train station (HaLechi) will be completely closed to all vehicles. The lane adjacent to the stadium will also be closed, though exit from the Ayalon Mall parking lot and terminal will be permitted as usual.

During the late-night hours, exit from Operationקדש Bridge and HaLechi will be allowed only towards the north. Access from the Raul Wallenberg-Sheerit intersection will be blocked from the north and east. Similarly, the axis from Umm Al-Fahm westward to Ben Gurion Street in Ramat Gan will be closed. Additionally, the left turn from Sheshet HaYamim to Operationקדש will be canceled, and key sections of Abuhazira and Ben Gurion streets will be blocked.

The police are advising drivers to avoid using private vehicles and to rely on public transportation during these periods.
