This paper reconstructs the design history of the Ayalon Crosstown Expressway in Tel Aviv, a project that initiated the technology transfer of American and European transport planning methods to Israel. It examines the unstable, evolving dynamics between agents pushing the technology such as the World Bank and international traffic planning firms, and local institutions pulling or opposing it such as the city, the highway company, and various competing governmental departments. The five successive plans developed for that highway by Canadian, American, French, and British planners offer themselves to comparative analysis of national design philosophies of urban highway systems. Through a close reading of the different geometric plans of one bifurcating interchange, the paper analyses how the technology was adapted to fit the Israeli political, administrative, and economic environment, and identifies a shift in highway planning rationality and techniques for governing mobility at the American source of innovation.

1960 年代城市公路技术转让和立交设计：以以色列 Ayalon Crosstown 高速公路为例

本文重构了特拉维夫 Ayalon Crosstown 高速公路的设计历史，该项目启动了美国和欧洲交通规划方法向以色列的技术转移。它考察了推动技术的机构（如世界银行和国际交通规划公司）与拉动或反对技术的地方机构（如城市、高速公路公司和各种相互竞争的政府部门）之间不稳定的、不断发展的动态。由加拿大、美国、法国和英国的规划师为该公路制定的五个连续计划提供了对城市公路系统的国家设计理念的比较分析。通过仔细阅读一个分叉立交的不同几何平面图，本文分析了该技术如何适应以色列的政治、
