Dear riders,

We have collected several public-transit updates that are worth getting to know:

🚌 New! Park & Drive from Rishon Lezion to Ramat Gan

The Ministry of Transportation and the National Public Transport Authority has launched a new Park & Drive service that includes a new Egged line No. 200 from Rishon Lezion to Ramat Gan.

Line 200 that departs from the ‘Park & Drive’ parking lot in Rishon Lezion West, travels directly to the stock exchange complex (Bursa) in Ramat Gan and back, and allows fast travel on designated public transportation lanes.

The Parking lot is free of charge, with about 600 parking spaces for private vehicles, and is operating 24 hours a day. The line is operating on Sunday-Thursday between 06: 00-22: 00 every ten minutes during peak hours and every 12 minutes for the rest of the time.
