Projects for Building a Metro System in Jerusalem: Plans for 2050

Projects for building a metro system in Jerusalem by 2050 were presented at a recent planning authority meeting. This ambitious project aims to significantly improve the city’s transportation infrastructure. This was reported by the railway transport news portal Railway Supply.

Projects for Building a Metro System: Two Proposed Plans

Two plans were proposed for discussion, each requiring substantial financial investments and careful planning. One plan, costing 34 billion shekels, envisions constructing four metro lines. The lines will intersect near the government complex “Kiryat Ha-Memshala,” improving access to essential government facilities.

The other metro construction project, a more expensive option costing 50 billion shekels, proposes line intersections at the main entry to Jerusalem. This solution focuses on convenience for residents and visitors, providing quick and easy access to the city.

Impact of the Metro Construction Project on City Development

The metro in Jerusalem aims not only to improve transport accessibility but also to reduce traffic congestion and emissions. Experts believe the new metro system could encourage economic growth and enhance the quality of the urban environment.

Implementing the metro construction project is expected to attract investments and boost Jerusalem’s appeal to both tourists and residents.
