Why Israel's Transport Ministry Is Missing the Freight Shift to Night Hours
In the podcast "The System," Hufit Cohen Ulay and Maor Shalom Suissa discuss a decision to move 40% of truck activity to nighttime hours and argue that the Transport Ministry is handling the issue only partially. They describe the move as a "half-clutch" approach, suggesting it falls short of what is needed.
The episode focuses on freight trucks and transportation policy, and on why the ministry, in the hosts' view, is failing to seize a major opportunity to reduce daytime congestion by shifting more heavy vehicle traffic after dark.
