Route 784 is a regional highway in Northern Israel, which serves as a main transportation artery for the residents of the Misgav Regional Council and connects the Jezreel Valley with the Galilee settlements by the shortest route. The road starts at the Yiftahel interchange in the south and ends at the West Karmiel interchange in the north. From the Misgav junction to the Yuvalim junction, the road overlaps with Route 805. The length of the road is 26 km (16 mi).

History[edit]

The road already appears in the five-year plan for the development of the Galilee from 1966, as a road to connect Nazareth-Karmiel-Ma'alot-Biranit. In the five-year plan, it was proposed to start the paving in sections, the first of which would be:[1]

  1. The connection of Highway 79 to Kfar Manda and Yodfat,
  2. Connection from Misgav to Karmiel,
  3. From Majd al-Krum to Tefen,
  4. From Tefen to Ma'alot, a section that at the end of 1966 had already been paved and today is part of Route 854.
  5. From Elkosh to Yakinton.

These sections are intended to connect with existing road sections.

The first section of road that was paved, the one that connects Road 7955 with Route 805, was paved to provide access to Yodfat in 1967–1968.[2][3][4]

The southern section of the road, from Kfar Manda to Route 79, was opened to traffic in July 1970.[5]

Work on the northern section of the road, between Karmiel and Route 805, began in 1982.[6]
