Citypass to complete Jerusalem light rail improvements
Within the next 24 hours, the government will sign an agreement with Jerusalem light rail franchisee Citypass, which will complete improvements in the city’s first light rail line within six months. The light rail, which began operating on August 18, 2011, has been the target of harsh public criticism due to unreliable train service, ticketing problems, and expensive fines. In the agreement to be signed by Citypass’s board of directors, the franchisee of the Jerusalem’s light rail Red Line commits to fixing all defects, mainly connected to service and punctuality, so that it can receive final approval from the government, after which it would receive the remainder of the construction grant, totaling tens of millions of euros
