A survey conducted for Maariv by "Lazar Researcher" led by Dr. Menachem Lazar found that the majority of Israelis (60%) support the operation of the light rail on Saturdays in a limited format and without stopping at Bnei Brak stations, 35% oppose, and 5% have no opinion.
The highest support for running on Shabbat comes from secularists (84%), Yesh Atid voters and the National Unity Party (91% and 82%, respectively).
The overwhelming opposition is from haredim (79% with only 11% supporting such a move), and to a lesser extent religious Zionists (58% oppose, 36% support).
