Error in the article title.
19/9 Today's date Saturday night
And not as it was typed by mistake.
Tomorrow is September 19th. And with you is forgiveness.
A good ending for all the people of Israel.
The lazy ones recycled an old article. Look at the comments.
The only country that builds a stadium that blocks major traffic routes and besieges a residential neighborhood every game…
The stupidity knows no end here. In advance, it was necessary to prevent cars from reaching the stadium and provide normal public transportation from all parts of Haifa and a conveyor belt to the train station and the central station of Hof Carmel.
Stupidity strikes at all of Haifa's planning. It's like a stroke of fate.
Maccabi Haida prefers blocking because of a football game rather than blocking from the abominable leftist Kaplanists
From mistake to mistake K. Eliezer said goodbye to the same stadium that was moved again to the Peres neighborhood. Dumb people. Limited liability.
The only city that removed a stadium that disturbed an entire neighborhood, and built an entire neighborhood around a stadium in a new location.
The only city that opposed a train tunnel so that the train would pass through with fences and suffocate the entire city from its coastline.
The stupidity of the planners in Haifa should be investigated in a book about the Israeli dream…
"Hope" for the residents of ✨️"Beautiful Haifa"... that "Maccabi Haifa" wins on Saturday - tonight in a big way... lol... lol... lol... lol... lol... lol...🙏
"Concurrently with the game, traffic blockages are expected from Hanasi Street near the auditorium in the Carmel Center towards the Horev Center on Horev Street."
I still don't understand what the connection is between the game at the Ofer Stadium and the traffic from the auditorium to the Horev Center.
Who can explain to me?
It's time to stop blocking the Horev intersection.
It is impossible for a belligerent minority to seize a central intersection in Haifa for themselves.
[…] Instructions for fans at Sammy Ofer Stadium […]
Thank you very much for the message from the Israel Police. Have a good and blessed week everyone.
There's nothing like staying home on a day like this.
A wonderful idea with the matron 💪
Who are you playing against?
I wish for the mayor to cancel the entire parking lot around the stadium. will oblige everyone to arrive by public transport. Production of shelters for buses to Horeb and the center of Carmel. Instead of the huge parking area, more sports facilities will be created, such as an indoor Olympic pool or a multi-purpose sports hall such as in Jerusalem the arena near Teri Stadium, in order to create a sports complex as promised in the past.
Absolutely right. Haifa needs to move forward like Jerusalem and Tel Aviv towards a future that includes fewer cars and more people. It's not perfect there either, but at least they're trying.
Assaf Haifa is progressing in reverse - the downtown suffers from the terrible noise of vehicles passing through it, not to mention the explosions of biker gangs when the police do nothing to stop it and cause great suffering to residents and business owners. In the lower city there is darkness. In a dark Paris square. In a dark Palmer gate. The stairs between the neighborhoods are dark. This municipality does not understand how to create a city for people. The entire space between Hadar and the lower city is a black hole of neglect. Dirt in every urban garden and promenade, in quantities. Simply a city without leadership is the unfortunate reality.
And what do you want now? To walk: to return to Yona Yahav. go figure.
Everything is subject to the desires of the routine disruptions by the "brains"......
Wretched creature
Do I have a disabled note?
How do you come to the game?
Where can you park?
In the parking lot for the disabled
