Residents of Berel Katznelson Street: It is impossible to park on our street
Residents of Berel Katznelson Street in Neve Shanan, who live near the open school, claim that the street is congested several times a day, because of parents who bring the students to school in their cars, in addition to the fact that there is no place left for them to park their cars near their residences on the street.
In recent times, the situation has gotten even worse, as the school holds parents' days and other activities in the evenings and afternoons, when the residents of the street return from a day of work, and thus find themselves without a parking space at all.
One way street, congestion and trucks
"Our street is one-way and has one lane, and regularly in the morning, around the beginning of the school day, at 13:00 p.m. and at 16:00 p.m. the whole street becomes one big traffic jam," says one of the street's residents. "Not to mention the parking thing, that you simply can't find parking close to the house. Lately there are probably a lot of events at the school in the afternoon, and again and again I come home with shopping and find myself parked 200-300 meters from the house and carried home with the shopping ".
According to the resident, due to the construction of the project at the end of the street, there is regularly a massive traffic of trucks, which makes traffic on the road even more difficult.
A regional school
"One of the problems is that it is a regional school, says another resident, "students come from all over the city, so a large number come with their parents in cars. If it was a regular school, some of the students would have come on foot, because it was close to their home, and the problem would have been partially solved.
What we want is for the part of the street closest to us and the school to be painted blue and white and for the residents to allow us to park free of charge. This was done on other streets in the city because of similar problems, on Masada and Tschernihovsky streets for example, and there is no reason why it shouldn't happen here as well."
that someone will care
He continues: "What can be done about the traffic jam problem? I don't know that, but I would be happy to see that there is someone in the municipality who cares about our plights, the little citizens, but when we turn and complain, that's not the feeling we get."
No response was received from Haifa Municipality.
Does the mayor have transportation advisors?
hahahahaha she's a doctor of cities isn't she?
She understands everything better
Great, contact her complaints advisors.
The only response from the municipality of Haifa is no response, the main thing is that there is a municipality spokesperson with a salary of 40 thousand shekels who will say there is no response
The problem is not the school, the problem is the huge buildings that Yona Yahav gave to money-thirsty repeat contractors who did not consider the planning of the street and caused an overload on the street. shame!
Wait 800 vehicles from the project of 400 apartments of Pershkovsky is just the beginning. Along the street and on Azar Street, do you want to add, are you sitting? 1200 apartments being demolished. What does this mean? 2000 additional vehicles in Berel Katznelson and the Ziv Center. You know that the traffic jams will not be XNUMX minutes when leaving the street, but an hour and a quarter in a few years.
Get out of there, this municipality is running on money and property taxes and is going to destroy the whole area. Habiva Reich and Pershkovsky is just a trailer.
Just for the sake of comparison, how bad the situation on Berel Katznelson Street is - in each Shambor neighborhood, in each Carmelia neighborhood, and in each Ahuza neighborhood, over a decade of Tama 38, 400 apartments and approximately 800 vehicles were added in each.
In Berel, it happens all at once from one construction evacuation project that instantly and punctually adds such amounts of traffic and apartments.
The load on the Ziv center at the exit from Berel is going to be in the headlines in the coming years non-stop.
In my opinion, the municipality's "solution" is going to be the complete destruction of Nahal Ziv, for the road that will connect Berel Katznelson to the Grand Canyon.
We understood it as soon as they approved the evacuation of this huge building, that it was impossible for them to leave the Zein Center as the only exit.
This is the reason we did not buy an apartment in Ramat Sapir with a "view" towards Nahal Ziv. It is clear to us that this landscape is definitely temporary and will be replaced by a road similar to the Nahal Givorim road, there will be the Nahal Ziv highway between the Grand Canyon and Berel Katznelson. It would be a catastrophe for all Huadi, but the municipality knows that the residents will push to do it as soon as there are huge traffic jams at the exit. Then they will approve another descent from there while completely demolishing Huadi and the stream.
The difficulty is of course the lack of planning and approvals for thoughtless construction entrepreneurs. The difficulty is not related to the school, but to the fact that huge buildings were built there, without thinking about the street and without considering the residents. In Habiva Rike and Haralaf, the problem is in the construction school or in the construction of huge towers that are not suitable for the street?! Crazy! Just remember that, and don't buy an apartment there or insist on half the price and then show patience
,
The problem is not the school that has existed there for many years, but the disproportionate construction of the Pershovsky project. I live on Habiva Reich Street at the beginning of the street and my children attend the open school. It is unbelievable that they are repeating the same terrible mistake that was made in Habiva. Crying for generations.
This problem exists on every street that has a school, and on every street near a hospital, and to this is added a large and dense project that is still under construction, Habiva Reich is a great example of a nightmare, the problem that is described is really not unique to Berel Street and there are places that are even worse off.
It's not only on Berel Street, it's also on Habiva Street that there's a builders' school, it's also on Fichman Street that there are two kindergartens and a Fichman school, including a Lahav warehouse super. We the tenants on these streets have no rest and we have no parking spaces for our vehicles. The cars are also in danger from being hit by the trucks that come and unload goods at Lahav warehouses. Borla Street, there is no parking after 17.00 in the evening and those who finish work later have nowhere to park. All of Haifa is in danger of population explosion and parking lots in particular. Terrible and terrible what you read here. We must do something to have a better life.
Go to Naot Peres. Amazing neighborhood amazing population. No parking problem.
Naot Haras has 20 other more serious problems including traffic jams in the future on Route 4 from Tirat Carmel and the construction site Shikmal Dorumi. Dust and hell to you for the next decade
Oh, it's a lucky nightmare that you live in settlements and not in cities
In my opinion, the main complaint is about the afternoon hours.
All of Haifa should be painted blue and white and raise the price of parking significantly so that both the municipality will make money and residents will understand that it is expensive to own a car.
There is a possibility to solve the problem of traffic jams and the time has come. A discussion in the planning committees and the city council of the plans that I prepared for 6 neighborhoods in the city of Haifa will provide a proper and correct solution (over 11,000 apartments - 70 km of high-quality bike paths in the Mount Carmel range - very large walking paths - high-quality accessibility, on all roads in the neighborhoods and on the roads that connect the neighborhoods, excellent accessibility that replaces the use of private vehicles - a significant solution to the traffic jams on the Carmel ridge axis - while affecting the traffic congestion throughout the city) - are a primary basis for making public space accessible and reducing the use of private vehicles throughout the city - the discussion of my planning will realize the solution - The confiscation of the planning that I prepared should simply be canceled - the city of Haifa should be promoted; it is important to remember - the realization of a small part of the construction evacuation projects that are in advanced stages of approval will cause traffic congestion that the term 'traffic jams' we know today will be heaven compared to what is expected to happen. The time has come to hold a substantive and practical discussion.
Egged bag costs NIS 10 on a 120-trip card.
At the price of car maintenance (NIS 1000 per month test, insurance, fuel and oil, depreciation, treatments).
You can travel in Egged Bag TK 80 times. 50% discount for pensioners. You can travel with him 160 times a month at the cost of owning a car.
which is everywhere in Haifa, in your own taxi. To the sea, to the train, to the Horev center to drink coffee and back, to the grandson, to the clinic, to the play. Back and forth and back and forth like this 80 times a month without seeing a steering wheel and without stress and pressure from looking for parking.
And there is Carmelita and regular taxis and service taxis.
Dear pensioners, sell the car.
A problem of the same type at the cluster level. In the evening hours after work from 17:00 to 18:30 the neighborhood turns into a traffic bypass street. We cannot go out to the road from the parking lot of the house and entrance to the parking lot. They should have turned the southern entrance into a one-sided one. Nothing will be done. If the passage of the tunnels were discounted during peak hours. or becomes free the problem would be solved.
Yossi in Ramat Eshkol live "grounded" "strong" people who can also operate a neighborhood barrier that will prevent those who do not have a neighborhood badge from entering during rush hours.
Secondly, the residents of the neighborhood should join the demand to define a third route on Freud Road for public transportation only, so that Egged buses will not face traffic jams at all and that way the residents of the city will prefer to go to Matam by buses and shuttles only.
The construction of a freeway and its priority along the length of Freud, Matam intersection, and Horev center is the best solution.
The Carmel tunnels that you all thought would bring a decrease in traffic - turned out to be a bluff. Other roads do not solve anything if they are not turned into bus routes and the private vehicle is removed from them.
No, because on the sea road / Reali the Carmel center - the situation is beautiful
Parking has become severe on all streets. Haifa has become congested. Therefore, building evacuation must be allowed as soon as possible to allow parking in the basement floors of the buildings.
Good comfort. You are welcome to contact the residents of Am Moshevat in Petah Tikva, where all the towers have parking lots and each apartment has two parking spaces. We stand for fifteen minutes at the exit of the parking lot to join the roads. When will you understand - more parking lots don't solve a problem but make it worse.
On the contrary, in neighborhoods without parking lots at all, there are also no traffic jams at all. This is how in the center of Tel Aviv the parking lots are cleared in favor of pedestrian sidewalks,
Restrict the entry of private vehicles, and increase the lanes for buses only. And to this will be added light rail lines and bag taxis / Babel Dan and electric bicycle and scooter sidewalks. The result is a public transportation service that encourages walking and personal transportation, which is getting more and more accurate and improving to the point, as in many cities in the world, that you don't need to own a car at all and it is a product that can be kept in some warehouse around the city only for trips outside the city.
There is no excess parking during construction. vice versa. Forget it
Michal won't help reporting "traffic jams caused by parents driving" once in Disraeli, once in Zafarir, once in Berel Katznelson. And not about parking difficulties for school teachers. Nor the plight of the residents who have nowhere to park.
All of Haifa has the same problem and they call it in one word - a treat. The distress is not blue and white, red and white, or yellow and red. The predicament is the unwillingness of the residents of Haifa to switch to public transportation. residents Pupils. Teachers. And the municipality's unwillingness to appoint a deputy mayor and a division in the municipality that will be called "Haifa Public Transportation Division" and will prioritize it only. Not a parking department, not a signs department, not a parking lot department, not a road department. Department for Public Transportation. Require schools to arrive by bus. To close neighborhoods in the morning to the entry of trucks and to the entry of vehicles without a neighborhood label into the streets around schools, including requiring schools to cancel teacher parking lots within the boundaries of the institutions, and requiring teachers to arrive by public transportation only. Including canceling blue and white parking in front of schools in general, and turning them into drop-off bays for buses only. Including a requirement for all residents of Haifa to avoid a third and fourth vehicle for the family and to require a report on families owning more than 2 vehicles that do not have two parking spaces and to prohibit this in a municipal by-law. Yes, yes, this is how a municipality works that wants to promote fast and sustainable transportation in its area. Care is taken to allow owners of unnecessary vehicles. We also parked half a kilometer from the house. And let them take a bus. and immediately add 50 bus lines in Haifa, of minibuses in the style of the bag in the neighborhoods to educational institutions. So a parent in Moria will send the child to Ilanot school in a minibus and will drive himself to work by bus and not in his car. That's the only way to handle the situation. Just like that, no gimmicks of additional parking lots and blue and white will help. The public must say goodbye to the private vehicle.
Come and visit in the morning/afternoon/afternoon on Yair Katz Street - the new David Yelin school and you will realize that the problem is nationwide. All the new cars have been sold, today you have to wait several months to get a new car but the volume of the roads remains constant and therefore the density is increasing And grew up. I hope there will be air left to breathe...
And do you think it helped Masada?! Masada\Hillel\Arlozorov are streets with a very serious parking problem, and since all the cafes in Masada and Hillel opened, it is simply impossible to find parking there after 16:00 p.m. Fixed. I'm not talking about the traffic jams that are created due to the exit from Hillel. But because it is Hadar, no one takes care of it, and there are no local articles about it.
