The Carmelite is one of the most underutilized attractions in Haifa. It can promote the nightlife of Haifa both to its residents and to the people of the nearby cities.
It has six stations in total, with Haifa's nightlife concentrated near four of them - Paris Square (close to the Hasmona center train station, to all the pubs on Jaffa St., Natanzon and Azmatu, to the port campus, to the Natanzon and Luna clubs) another station is in Neviyim (near the City Club - Hall), a station on Masada St. (near the pleasant cafes of the Hadar neighborhood, close to basement 10) and another station in the Carmel Center (the main area where the young people of Haifa go).
Despite the tremendous potential that exists in Carmelit, she stops working every day at 22:00 p.m. and does not work at all on weekends and holidays.
The Haifa municipality has the opportunity to take the city one step further, to promote and upgrade the city's night life, if only the Carmelite is activated once an hour every night and on weekends, at a special rate for the night. This step can also prevent many traffic accidents and even air pollution from the cars, also this step can bring people from outside the city and raise the level of Haifa's nightlife, create more interest in the University of Haifa and wake up the city in general.
I would be happy if you write suggestions, complaints, reinforcements, the main thing is that you express your opinion on the matter and that we will eventually succeed in upgrading the night life of the city!
An article on encouraging travel in Carmelite locally. haifa-news
Worth a look!

Just a small request -
So that we know if the project was successful and at what level - can the Hai-Pe website receive accurate data
From the Carmelite, how many passengers in total used it when it was open on New Year's Eve?
Speaking of the discussion - so it's true that we don't really have a subway, and it's more of an elevator than a real subway,
But it has 6 stations. Every subway station can be a tourist attraction. The question is what is invested in it -
Not only money, but also imagination and design special elements that create experience.
It should be understood that public transportation is a way to quickly get between places, but it should also provide An urban experience.
Carmelite should be meeting place Long before it is a means of transportation. A meeting place with Gan Ham, a place
A meeting with the lower city, a meeting place with Hadar. The stations also serve as a transition between the two parts of the street.
They should become event – Dynamic, experiential, sensory. Here are some places in the world that have realized this:

The discussion was intentionally split in order to emphasize the documentation work done by haifatv.co.il
and the expected launch of the new site.
The discussion on New Year's Eve:
viewtopic.php? f = 10 & t = 1801
For some reason this discussion split, here it is continued, maybe it's worth combining the two topics
viewtopic.php? f = 10 & t = 1801
This is how it used to look
And where is the Carmelite fan club when you need them?
Where is Blastic Ace, Omer Gutthalz and the other celebrated Carmelite poets - this is the opportunity to celebrate a performance and also sell Carmelite shirts!!!

We have replaced the video above with a video from YouTube.
They say that really this evening (22:00 p.m.) a deer will appear in the Carmelite wagons.
Can anyone confirm?
Sending a link is no problem, but is it possible to share like on youtube or flix - so that people will see the video and not the message, and maybe even be able to hear it on the source site?
Thanks:-)
To the guy who claims that the name "the escort boys" is not legitimate: XXX deleted. We will not allow swearing in the XXX location
By the way - another idea that came up once. Turn the Carmelite stations into exhibition spaces, galleries. You can rent the wall areas
Nationalists who will present works and sculpture (requires a small investment in improving the lighting and erecting mobile brick walls instead of the ceramics)
How to lick this video?
It is possible to hold poetry and music reading evenings (and food) inside the Carmelite stations, then travel to another station (between poets or artists).
Could be a very interesting gimmick.
Great, well done to Zvi and the boys!
invite them to appear at the Carmelite dedication celebrations in its new format: 24/7.
The clip does not load.
I don't know who Zvi is, but escort boys?
It's really not a legitimate band name, with all due respect.
Is it true that Zvi and the escort boys will appear in one of the wagons with chansons to the city of Haifa?

The Carmelite will be open for free travel on New Year's Eve starting at 22:00 p.m. and throughout the night, as part of the anniversary celebrations for the Haifa subway
Incorporating the Carmelite into a pass is a MUST!
Daily free is another great idea.
It should be noted that so far no response has been received from the director of the Carmelite. I understand from the spirit of the thread that I shouldn't be surprised.
What pleasantly surprised me today, is that you can put bikes on Egged buses in the city, you just have to pay a ticket for them.
For me it is worth every penny
It may seem like a marginal service, but it has a critical meaning for encouraging cycling in mountainous Haifa -
People can ride in a general trend down to the sea or downtown, and come back by bus.
Enough to call it New Year's Eve, enough for Greekness.
You can call it and celebrate the New Year's Eve.
Sign the petition to open the Carmel at night and forward the link to all members, very important!
As soon as we have enough signatures we will send the petition to the municipality.

The discussion turned to a discussion about movie theaters, it's actually a discussion about the Carmelite, open a new discussion about the state of movie theaters in Haifa
The intention was not to help private cinemas but if there is a situation where market forces close cinemas in shopping malls
A big city like Haifa cannot afford to remain empty of culture after allowing cinemas to be destroyed because the malls usurped them.
The municipality of Haifa can be a pioneer in this issue, which is a problematic situation in many cities, and it is possible to establish an urban cinematography within the framework
that will function as a cinema with a profit goal for everything and will screen blockbusters like any private cinema, in the heart of the city, profits will go to the operation
The place and cultural events in the city. Or give incentives to entrepreneurs to return to establish cinemas in the city, for example a municipal fund that will help entrepreneurs who wish to renovate
old cinemas and bring them back to commercial activity.
What has to do with the municipality, the municipality should not help private cinemas in shopping malls, the municipality should encourage cinematographers
I appeal to the Green faction to raise the issue of closing the cinemas in Carmel and Hadar.
It is not possible that in a city that boasts an international film festival, all the cinemas in the city will be closed.
The municipality can encourage with various incentives and with the help of cultural budgets to open more cinematheques and cinemas in Hadar and Carmel.
When talking about a city that should attract young people and not be a cultural wasteland, this is exactly one of the important issues.
Panorama cinema also closed? Tell me what will become of this city?!
Easy correction: there was a panorama cinema…
I agree with the call to extend public transport hours. It is not possible that in a city that wants to be a lively metropolis even at night, most of the lines
They will stop operating starting at 8 pm, or with a low frequency of once an hour and then stop completely at 10 pm. The minimum should be activation of the lines
the main ones that pass through the main traffic routes in the city regularly until midnight. It is not possible that entire neighborhoods starting at 7 pm must rely
on private vehicles and shuttles. It is impossible to develop efficient public transportation without providing solutions for the evening hours, and precisely in the evening hours it is necessary
To be an alternative to vehicles, accidents and clogging the sidewalks in the main entertainment routes in the city. The city is also missing more lines, in many lines during the day
There is a lot of crowding and a lot of people are standing, even among those who travel frequently. Public transportation must be improved even during operating hours
And also in the amount of public transportation. Within this, the Carmelite must also operate at night and also build the entertainment centers around it. There are the pubs
In the lower city, very close to Paris square station. There are the cafes in Masada on the axis. It is possible to develop back cinemas and restaurants in hours
Tonight on Hanaviim Street, and also the City Hall which is on the line. In the center of Carmel there are cafes and the Beat Club, a Panorama cinema and it is possible to develop more places.
The municipality must take Carmelit seriously as the city's entertainment hub that will allow people to both safely reach the entertainment venues and move between
Places, for example going down to the pub in the lower city and from there in Carmelit to a concert at City Hall and from there in Carmelit back to the center of Carmel.
It's funny that they say "we will open it if there is a demand". Then it turns out that the municipality subsidizes the Carmelite's losses by millions every year.
In any case, there is no demand, so maybe you will really wake up and try to produce it? Maybe open the Carmelite to people with bicycles? Maybe you will
Free ride for those who buy at a downtown business over a certain amount? hello wake up!!
I agree with the request, if it is possible to upload the article, surely many have not seen it.
It is necessary to support all the requirements regarding the Carmelite - the extension of travel times, its use as a night line for youth entertainment and also its inclusion in Egged tickets.
Has anyone seen the article that was on the local channel about the issue?
Can this be uploaded to the internet?
As a resident of the French Carmel to which public transportation ends at 10.30:10.00 at night, I am prevented from spending time in Carmel after XNUMX:XNUMX in the evening. I call for extending the operating hours of public transportation in general and the Carmelite in particular.
The Carmelite is undoubtedly an asset of the city of Haifa, one of its attractions and an efficient, convenient and non-polluting means of transportation.
We must cultivate the Carmelite!
When will we be able to purchase, as in Gush Dan Free daily ticket that will allow the use of the bus and Carmelite?
This is especially important in a city with a steep topography and neighborhoods where you sometimes have to change 2-3 buses.
This is even more important for promoting tourism, allowing tourists to walk around the city, in the museums - which are now deserted.
A funny movie about Carmelite:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lf8Gkg6o5Mk
I said - add to the petition that Carmelit can be used as a second trip by bus (continuation ticket) and it will be possible to travel
By bus as a continuation to Carmelit. Only in this way will it have economic and practical justification for the residents of the city. You know what he said
A council member in Yahav's coalition who also wanted to be mayor, whom I contacted about the matter, note: "No one rides buses anyway"
Did you understand? Because He and his entourage are rich They don't travel on buses, so no one travels. Hundreds of thousands of passengers in the city
They are dirt and dust. Or maybe he cares His friends are taxi drivers. No one rides buses, do you understand? That's his answer.
We will soon open a petition regarding the opening of the Carmel at night on Saturdays and holidays, updates later..
[quote="guest":9dbyya93]You can keep up to date with the various events related to Carmelite in the Carmelite fan group on Facebook
The group is an informative and community group whose goal is to strengthen awareness of this special means of transportation.
hello guest,
We would appreciate it if you would update us from time to time on the group's activities, so that a very large Haifa public that keeps up to date with "Hai Fe" could be exposed to your events and activities.
Thanks,

The Carmelite fan group invites you to join
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=21062987984
You can wake up the Carmelite, or put it to sleep and open it for special events such as holidays and festivals.
It is of course possible to make it a free means within an hour for anyone who presents a bus ticket. Maybe then someone will bother to go down there.
But don't expect from this municipality or the managers of the Carmelite company for creative or marketing thinking.
Great idea !
In addition to this - allow bicycles to be brought to Carmelit.
From a letter I sent to the CEO of the Carmelite.
I am waiting for his answer...
to:
CEO of Carmelit Haifa Ltd
The subject: uploading a bicycle to Carmelit
A.N.,
I recently moved to Haifa after living in the Tel Aviv area.
As someone who is used to using bicycles as a means of urban transportation,
I found the ban on bringing bicycles to Carmelit puzzling and upsetting,
Among others for the following reasons:
- The Carmelite prides itself on being a means of transportation that, among other things, "saves ecological problems."
- The Carmelite markets itself as a means of transportation for travelers in the city, and can provide an ideal solution
For those who wish to travel the city by bicycle in a downward trend and return back to Carmel.
- The Carmelite does not suffer, to put it mildly, from an extreme load of passengers.
I would like a reasonable explanation for the ban on bringing bicycles to Carmelit.
Sincerely,
Guy Shahar
