  • Beit Shemesh upgraded three streets in Ramah Aleph for 7 million shekels.
  • Work included new roads, sidewalks, and improved traffic safety.
  • The project was completed before the Hebrew New Year.
  • Officials highlighted ongoing investment in infrastructure renewal.

The Beit Shemesh Municipality has completed extensive renovation and upgrade work on three streets in the Ramah Aleph neighborhood: Nachal Refaim, Nachal Gilo, and Nachal Noam. The project, costing approximately 7 million shekels (about $2 million USD), was carried out by the execution department of the Engineering Administration.

The upgrades included repaving roads and sidewalks, road markings and painting, installing traffic signs, improving safety measures, and adding guardrails. Additionally, new parking spaces were created, and traffic arrangements were modified.

The work concluded recently, just before the new Hebrew year, following comprehensive infrastructure renewal efforts. Acting Mayor and Chairman of the Local Planning and Building Committee, Shimon Goldberg, stated that alongside the city's construction boom, the municipality is investing in renewing existing infrastructure and upgrading older streets. He added that the Ramah Aleph project is part of this ongoing effort, with more projects planned to meet residents' needs.

Mayor Shmuel Greenberg remarked that the city is ending the year by completing another project that will benefit residents. He confirmed that these three streets received thorough treatment and pledged continued investment in the city's development and renewal across all neighborhoods in the coming year.
