Public transportation companies and local authorities are preparing for changes in travel and parking arrangements for Israel's 26th Knesset elections, scheduled for tomorrow, Tuesday. These preparations include free rides on some public transport lines, adjusted bus schedules, increased service on the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv train line, and parking benefits in certain cities.
According to a decision by the Central Elections Committee, free travel will be offered on all Israel Railways lines and intercity bus routes longer than 15 kilometers, starting tonight at 8:00 PM until the end of public transportation service on election day. Passengers on buses are advised to verify if their specific route is included in the arrangement by contacting the Ministry of Transportation's hotline. Israel Railways will enhance its service on the Jerusalem Yitzhak Navon-Tel Aviv line, operating three trains per hour in each direction between 12:00 PM and 8:00 PM on election day, an increase from the usual two. The third train each hour will originate and terminate at Tel Aviv HaHagana station. Free train travel will be facilitated by paper tickets obtained from ticket machines or service counters, not through Rav-Kav cards or payment apps. Due to passenger limits for travel to and from Jerusalem, advance travel vouchers will be required.
Metropolin bus company announced that schedules will differ from normal weekdays, with some intercity lines ceasing operation entirely and routes serving educational institutions being canceled. Urban and intercity trips under 15 kilometers will continue to require payment and standard validation. The Tel Aviv-Yafo Municipality also announced benefits for drivers and users of shared transportation. "Blue and White" parking throughout the city will be free, subject to local signage, and the first hour of parking at Ahuzot HaHof parking lots will be complimentary. Additionally, shared bike and scooter companies in Tel Aviv will offer free rides via special coupons in their apps, with terms varying by company.
