The 36th international Public Transport Congress was held in Tel Aviv in 1965.
 
On the medal's obverse a train emerges from under a bridge, on top of which a bus passes by; both symbols of modern means of transportation. Around the rim a Hebrew inscription "The 36th International Public Transport Congress, Tel Aviv 5725", followed by the French translation: "U.l.T.P. 36th Congress, Tel Aviv, Israel 1965".
On the reverse, a caravan of three camels symbolizes ancient means of transport. Below, on the left, on a raised panel, the State emblem. Above on the left, and below, on the right, a schematic drawing indicating the longitude and latitude lines of the globe.
