Transportation Ministry: Light rail beyond Green Line for everyone

2 November 2016, 4:28 pm Edit

The Transportation Ministry says the two new light rail lines leading to West Bank settlements will be used by both Israelis and Palestinians.

“The lines are designed for all residents alike,” the ministry says, according to Channel 2.

The statement comes a day after Transportation Minister Yisrael Katz said the capital’s light rail system would expand to several communities around the city, including the West Bank settlements of Ma’aleh Adumim, Adam and Givat Ze’ev, and the Qalandiya crossing between Ramallah and Jerusalem.
