- Environmental surveys indicate no expected violations of noise level restrictions.
For the first time, approval has been granted for the construction of a metro station in Israel, located in Ariel Sharon Park as part of the M3 line. This initial phase of work involves extensive engineering and infrastructure development, including the excavation and removal of approximately 300,000 cubic meters of earth. The project will also see the construction of underground support structures reaching a depth of about 38 meters, reinforced by nine rows of ground anchors, and the preparation of infrastructure for the station and the metro tracks.
The construction work is slated to last for approximately 24 months. During this period, a dedicated staging site will be established, encompassing offices, logistical areas, an earth drying zone, a bentonite filtration facility, a water purification plant, a temporary electrical switch room, and lighting systems. The station is situated in an open area, approximately 230 meters from a residential zone and 350 meters from a park. According to NTA (National Transport Infrastructure Company), environmental surveys indicate that noise level restrictions are not expected to be exceeded.
