Route 436 is a regional arterial road in Israel and the West Bank between Jerusalem and Givat Ze'ev. The southern portion begins as a major urban artery in Jerusalem's predominantly Hareidi neighborhoods leading to Highway 50 (Begin Boulevard), to Highway 1 and to the northern neighborhood of Ramot. Further north, the road runs alongside portions of Israel's West Bank Barrier as it approaches Givat Ze'ev. It crosses Route 443 to the Tel Aviv area and Highway 45 to Atarot and ends at the Beitunia section of the security barrier. The speed limit begins at 50 km/h along its urban section becoming 70 km/h as it passes through Ramot and then becoming 90 km/h as it leaves the Jerusalem municipality northwards. The road officially ends at the Beitunya cargo transfer terminal.
The road begins at the heavily congested intersection of Route 417 (Bar-Ilan Street/Hativat HarEl Boulevard) and Shmuel HaNavi Street. The first 0.3 km is called Shmuel HaNavi Street, a continuation of the street south of the intersection. At its beginning, 436 is a major transfer point for intra- and inter-city buses. It is six lanes wide with two lanes in each direction on either side for private vehicles and two public transportation lanes along its median. The bus lanes along the center of the road are envisioned to become part of the "Blue Line" of the Jerusalem Light Rail.
