(IsraelNN.com) The Transportation Ministry is establishing a national authority to regulate all forms of public transportation, according to an announcement by Transportation Minister Shau'ul Mofaz Monday.
The new body will oversee the operations of buses, cabs, railways, light rails and other public transportation.
The authority will work with smaller local bodies to coordinate between the various modes of public transportation to reduce congestion in Israel's cities. Methods will include establishing free parking at the edges of cities and possibly establishing tolls to enter the center of towns in order to encourage motorists to leave their vehicles and board mass-transit.
