This week we published here the cancellation of the budgets and projects of the Yaffe Nof company, by the Ministry of Transportation. In between, we also noted the murky relationship that was created between Einat Kalish Rotem and Israel Katz, then Minister of Transportation and today Minister of Finance.
The biggest project canceled by Minister Katz, immediately after Kalish was elected mayor, was the matron project on the Ridge axis. According to the words of Mr. Yona Yahav, who was the mayor when this project was in budgeting procedures, this is a huge project, with an estimated scope of about 4 billion NIS, within which there was a principle planning for underground parking lots at the intersections, according to Yona Yahav And according to the Ministry of Transport officials.
Yahav and others, whom we quoted in the article, pointed to a problem in the relationship between Kalish and Minister Katz.
We published the things related to the murky relationship between Kalish and Minister Katz here:
Kalish sends a letter to Miri Regev - 5/7/20
In response to our article, Kalish hurriedly sent a letter to Sarah Miri Regev in which she wrote, among other things:
"I read in the media to my surprise that I was the one who decided to cancel the matron of the ridge axis... the truth is that I never made such a decision"
Klish's letter is described in detail in the following article:
We returned to the archive to find out more details about the cancellation of the project
We rushed to the site archive and found the letter, which we received a year and a half ago (January 2019), detailing the reasons for canceling the project. In the letter, which we received from the Ministry of Transportation, in response to the request of Hai Pa reporter, Samer Odeh, it was written as follows:
"The mayor of the new city unequivocally announced that she opposes the project of raising the Matron line to Carmel, something that, unlike other projects, is within her authority, and therefore the minister ordered to cancel the planned project in Haifa and transfer the budget to promote a Matron to Nahariya."

When we presented Klish with the document from the Ministry of Transportation, we received the following response on 7/7/20
"The mayor did not issue any order to cancel the matron, neither orally nor in writing. This is recycled fake news. In a meeting held a few months ago with the Ministry of Transportation, the mayor reinforced the need for a transportation solution for the entire Carmel Ridge.
We do not have any document that preserves the mayor's decision to cancel the matron of the ridge."
If so, it is not clear at the moment who is right: why was the huge project cancelled?
Maybe one day we will know...


How good that they canceled this megalomania.
In light of the previous harassment of the Legend lines to force the use of the ugly monsters, who knows which lines would have fallen victim to this man-eater.
I believe in Einat Klish. Members of the current and previous government have already been caught in lies many times.
My assessment is that the mayor may have proposed changes that would improve the matron line in question, and the government ministers turned it into an ego war, as is their custom, canceled the project and blamed it on Klish.
Cliché, cliché, failure, cry that you didn't vote for Yahav and what did you get? Pig neighbors and mayor failure
In order to. What's more, Einat did not give an order to cancel the matron.
The mayor of Haifa, Dr. Einat Kalish Rotem, is indeed right. Einat came to the city to work and not to play. Give her a chance. She is an amazing woman.
Why doesn't she turn to her friends in the joint list and March to help the city?
Finally someone sane sounds!!
Continuation of the Carmelite from the center of Carmel to the university - this is the solution and it will happen one day, you just need someone with a little flight in the mayor's office and a fighter to get the budget from the Ministry of Finance. Maybe with the opening of the Chinese port things will change and Haifa will once again be part of the State of Israel
I just asked:
In the past, when it was published that Klish was strongly opposed to the matron in Carmel, did she then back up and claim that
"This is fake news"
I have an example of what a Shabbat keeper is capable of.
- 10 thuggish attacks of a senior citizen who, through her bad luck, got him as a neighbor (for which the police closes complaints within days or hours).
- An offer to that elderly woman to eat arsenic and the realization of the idea by spreading other poisons on her private property.
-Damage to private property (with the same failed treatment).
-Theft of private property (as above).
Maybe she really doesn't know. And this is not cynicism.
It fits what has been happening in our city since she was elected, it seems that there are many things in the city that she is not aware of...
To all the commenters here who talk nonsense and dream dreams. Ride horses. Just complain all day. Be satisfied with what you have. Keep Shabbat, it's more important than a matron or a car or a scooter.
We will observe Shabbat after all those who carry dead animals on their heads, their wives, and their tep will put on masks as required over the mouth and nose and will not be a shuttle to transfer viruses from Bnei Brak to Haifa.
The Carmel Ridge metro line 2 mining sites will be in the Kindergarten and the University. TBM machines will excavate them and within a year the tunnel will be completed. A depot for the metro train will be built near the university. From the university station, the metro will go up in a light train configuration to Usafia. The metro stations will be Gan Ham, Gan Shmuel-Zafaririm, Gan Gliker-Ahuza BJ Carmel, Horev Center-Freud Intersection, Idar, Beit Biram, Golda-Dania Intersection, Universita, Ispia Shech Maravit, Ispia Center, Shekunen Mizrahit, Dalit Center El Carmel, and the Moharka.
right!!!
It is impossible to make a matron track in Moria, it will block all Moria. Their forces know this and are recycling an impractical idea instead of extending the Carmel with another line from the center of Carmel to the university, something that has been requested for decades. There is 150 billion shekels for metro lines in Gush Dan and there is not 5 billion shekels for the Carmelit line to the university? What could be done in the Carmel tunnels is not possible in the ridge line? Don't work on us, we are not third class citizens. To immediately plan a Carmelite metro line 2 between the center of Carmel and the university with stations in Zafarir, Baachuza, Horev, Ramat Begin, Rieli, Dania Junction and the university. What are you waiting for?
