(haipo) - One criminal incident that took place (Thursday 06.07.23) in broad daylight paralyzed the entire neighborhood and imprisoned its residents. "If God forbid there is a fire, an earthquake or anything else, there could be hundreds of deaths and it will be on the heads of the mayors," says David Etzioni, the mayoral candidate, in an interview with Lahi Fe regarding the closed neighborhoods.
The imprisoned neighborhoods in Haifa • A criminal incident paralyzed several neighborhoods and imprisoned their residents - imagine if a disaster had occurred!
One criminal incident blocked a city for three hours
Last Thursday, 6/7/23, an event took place that shook many in Haifa, in which a man was murdered, with gunshot wounds, by an assassin on a motorcycle, in broad daylight, on Moriah Boulevard in Haifa.
Sderot Moriah, a central thoroughfare in the city, was blocked in both directions, for about three hours, by the Israel Police, for the purpose of mapping the scene of the murder.
To the main axis (Sderot Moriah), the only entrance and exit street of Carmelia neighborhood, which is defined as a closed neighborhood Like other neighborhoods on the Carmel Ridge in the city, the neighboring neighborhood Kabbir, Ramot Golda, Ramat Begin and Dania neighborhood.
Thousands were stuck for hours in huge traffic jams
Residents and drivers who wanted to get out of the neighborhoods near the scene of the murder were trapped inside following the blockade of the Moriah highway and due to the fact that in a large number of neighborhoods there is only one way out. The trapped and imprisoned drivers waited for hours inside the vehicles, a nerve-wracking time especially when people have commitments and are supposed to reach their destination.
While people sat and waited in their vehicles for the flow of traffic, many scenarios came to mind and many questions surfaced: What would happen in the event of a fire or a missile attack, or an earthquake and the residents would have to rescue children from schools and kindergartens and escape?
Drivers who were in the cars asked us to bring up the issue again and convey the distress and anxiety they are in.
In a closed neighborhood - a small incident may turn into a tragedy
You don't have to go far, talk and think only about emergencies and disasters.
When the neighborhood is closed and blocked, even routine events cannot be dealt with quickly and in time, such as, for example, the entry of an emergency and rescue vehicle, at the same time that the residents are trying to escape from a disaster.
Imagine what would have happened if on the same day that the man was murdered in broad daylight, an ambulance had stumbled on its way to the neighborhood and had to evacuate a man in order to save his life. Needless to say, the ambulance could not leave the neighborhood at all. So is the entrance to the neighborhood. A routine event may end in an unnecessary disaster just because of the dysfunction, neglect and failure of the mayors for generations.
◄ Etzioni: "This is a colossal failure"
Time until the plague of pigs in Haifa is eradicated
(90 days from Yona Yahav taking office)

A mayor who wants to implement goes to Jerusalem, brings budgets and executes
"This is a colossal failure by two mayors," says David Etzioni, the candidate for mayor of Haifa, and points an accusing finger at the previous mayor, Yona Yahav, and the current mayor, Einat Kalish Rotem.
If, God forbid, a disaster happens, a fire, an earthquake or anything else, there could be hundreds of deaths, Etzioni says, and it will be on the heads of the mayors. "A mayor who wants to execute, goes to Jerusalem, brings budgets and executes!"
In an interview with Lahi Fe, Etzioni says that a mayor should be brave and not like the last mayors who were afraid of public opinion and did not do what was required of them for the personal safety of the residents of their city.
"Human lives do not play," says Etzioni, "we will bring these budgets and carry out the slopes of Haifa. There cannot be a situation of murder in Moriah that clogs the entire city and the residents of Carmelia cannot leave the neighborhood."
"Commits to the residents of Haifa that there will be a solution for the hybrid neighborhoods"
"When I managed the fire crisis in 2016, on behalf of the Ministry of Finance and budgeted the entire incident, both for the Haifa municipality and for property tax, a decision was made even then that each neighborhood must have two exits," Etzioni clarifies, "but the former mayor did not do this and neither The current city ignored the warnings... That's why we are in a broken trough. If God forbid there is an incident here, then the right way to carry out the plan is to ask for the budgets and demand them immediately with the experience With my skills and my skills in the various government ministries, I will know how to do it and I promise to the residents of Haifa that there will be a solution to this problem."
The Haifa municipality hastened and announced this week that the Kabbir road has already been budgeted and planned and that a tender has been issued for the execution.
When asked if he will be elected mayor, how soon can he open more exits to the other neighborhoods? Etzioni answered: "It's all a matter of priorities. If you start quickly with a plan, within five years there may be two or three ramps. Within 10 years, all 5 ramps will be ".
"If the mayor is brave and makes decisions for the residents and not for politics, the city progresses and develops"
When Gural opened the Freud Road - the opponents threw stones at him
Etzioni concludes, and talks about the courage of the late Mayor Aryeh Gural, who suffered stones thrown at his head, just because he was brave and stuck to the opening of Freud Road despite the opposition of the residents:
"The most violent demonstration against a mayor was against the late Gural. The residents of an estate threw stones at the mayor, because he wanted to build a road called Freud. Today, no resident of Haifa can imagine Haifa without Freud. If the mayor is brave and makes decisions for the residents and not for politics, then the city progresses and develops. That's why I say - I'm brave and my job is to develop the city and not get involved in petty politics. We need to serve all the residents of Haifa."
A plan for roads from the imprisoned neighborhoods, as posted by Klish on her Facebook account on 16/8/22
The State Comptroller recommended promoting a plan for access roads in the incarcerated neighborhoods
In the state comptroller's report, published in 2018, two years after the great fire in Haifa, the comptroller recommended that the municipality of Haifa prepare a fire protection plan and work with the Ministry of Transportation and the relevant planning bodies to prepare additional access roads for all the neighborhoods confined within its area.
Five years have passed since then and nothing has happened before. According to the plan that exists, the neighborhoods of Kabir, Carmelia, Dania, Golda and Begin are supposed to connect to the coastal road (Route 4). So that in the event that a fire breaks out or some situation occurs that requires a quick evacuation of the residents, it will be possible to carry it out both upwards, towards the axis, and downwards, which will naturally speed up the evacuation.
Construction of the downhill road from the Kabbir neighborhood towards the cemetery
The Kabbir road was approved many years ago and was even budgeted for by the Haifa municipality.
At the end of June 29/6/23, a tender was published for the execution of the works. The deadline for submitting proposals is 13/8/23.
Simulation of the descent road from Kabvir neighborhood
How exactly to open a road to Ramat Alon... and create huge traffic jams here. Will it solve the problem of Sabioni Daniya? After all, it is to destroy the Ramat Alon neighborhood for the sake of Savoni Dania....it is a disaster...for our neighborhood...even so at 13:00 and in the morning it is difficult to go out because of the school...and the many kindergartens here...kindergartens upstairs...kindergartens on Hasidi Umot Street Olam....Elementary school..Alliance high school and division ..Yavna high school...Carrefour supermarket..Dennis center and more and more. Everything on the same small road..How much is possible? It's not smart...find another way....it's not normal what's happening here
..
David Etzioni will never succeed in being the mayor of Haifa, because he is not trustworthy, and all his promises are false promises that are incapable of being fulfilled!
In all the signs that were scattered around the city of Haifa, with the title David Etzioni Rosh Ha'ia, I wonder since when he is the mayor of the city, and how the decision was made, which is a dream, in which he chose himself already the mayor of Haifa!
This man is full of promises in order to try to buy the residents of the city, and it is forbidden to believe his promises with his embellishments and lies!
The man is simply sick with the disease of the ruling throne about as much as Benjamin Netanyahu!
He must not be given the opportunity to be elected mayor of Haifa!
I think my daughter's dog and my son's cats will be much more successful than Zion as mayor. The barking of the dog and the howling of the cats have a meaning... the chatter of zero-elite people. His maximum knowledge of managing a city is to spell mayor correctly... there can be noise... he knows how to make noise. See you have been warned!!!
The road in Kabvir will be the least winding and the fastest to get down from Carmel.
Wai Wai Kabeer is going to be busier than Freud Road.
About a quarter of the ridge would prefer to go from Shimson to Kabvir than to the center of Carmel and turn to the Sea Road. The left turn to Kabvir from Moriah is going to be the new traffic jam in the Carmel, in my opinion the traffic jam will last until after the Samson intersection
A Zionist needs to learn to shave his beard!!!! We will not be a guinea pig for an inexperienced person
Lack of knowledge and understanding!!!
Mr. Etzioni,
Goral was a small official and a terrible mayor!
For your very limited knowledge, the Plyman Road road should not have passed through Freud Street
that it is not suitable. The Carmel tunnels should have continued to the center of Horeb which was built with corruption
Under the auspices of the party [Mapai] the entire area of Bank Hapoalim was under regulatory control.
Commissar Gural made a one-sided move and will remember Draon Olam.
Yona Yahav knows that there is a ruling to open more roads that will connect Idar/Soruka/Ramat Golda
But did nothing. Everyone wants someone else to pay the price!
If Yona Yahav grows up...and gives the OK, the load will drop from the Horev center...we will wait to see the good news he brings!!
And does Yona Yahav not understand this? Good luck to Zion.
Carmelia is not imprisoned. There are at least 2 exits (Rachel, the Heine), 3 entrances (the Sea Road, then Lotus, Zfaririm, Yarakon). We don't want a road that goes out of the neighborhood and destroys all the beauty of Nahal Shih, the terraces, the spring and the Halablov, the shrub that only grows in Carmelia in the whole country. In addition, the road will cause even more terrible traffic jams on streets that are unable to carry the capacity of vehicles such as Alexander Yanai, Vizzo, etc.
Imagine that at 7:00-9:00 the Moriah-Tzafriram and Moriah-Keller intersections are blocked by 4000 vehicles trying to get from Neve Shanan, Rumma, Vardia, Hadar, Hadar Alyon, Moriah and Shambor and down through the neighborhoods to Matmat and Rahab and towards them from the Haaretz border. Another 1000 vehicles are trying to get out of the neighborhoods to Moriah at the same intersections. It will be a total collapse. The traffic jams today are child's play. It will not be possible to drive through these neighborhoods all hours of the day without standing in traffic for 20 minutes. If Freud disturbs the residents of Ramat Eshkol when he passes around the neighborhood, imagine what will happen In small and crowded neighborhoods already today like Carmelia, Kabirim and Azoza, each of which will have thousands of vehicles at peak rush hour. This is an insane, abnormal municipality and all interests are led by construction contractors and entrepreneurs who want to market it as a solution to the huge congestion on the roads that already existed even before this destructive move.
Carmelia is not imprisoned. There are at least 2 exits (Rachel, the Heine), 3 entrances (the Sea Road, then Lotus, Zfaririm, Yarakon).

In addition, the road will cause even more terrible traffic jams on streets that are unable to carry the capacity of vehicles such as Alexander Yanai, Vizzo, etc. The "closed neighborhoods" is just a lie of the narcissists and populists.
100% right in every word.
These roads, like in the bus disaster near Beit Oren, will actually be a death trap for hundreds of vehicles that will try to get off them at the same time and will be trapped while in a huge traffic jam in a screen of fire jumping from winds from the sea.
These roads are an illusion. A triple disaster - a disaster for transportation in the city, an ecological disaster for interrupting the continuity of water resources, and a death trap in the event of a fire.
Now we will explain to David Etzioni, that it is strange that his wife is involved in public transportation and he is promoting complete reliance on a private car and in fact the hermetic suffocation of the western neighborhoods in the morning and in the afternoon as experienced by the residents of Freud, through France, through the Sea, and Printzack.
Let's start with an explanation:
Adding 4 downhill roads will determine the reliance on a private vehicle. The neighborhoods are not closed. The residents are trapped in traffic jams. Because there are no mayors with the courage to create a public transport route in them, at the expense of private car parking. Carmelia, for example, has 3 exits. Zafarir has two exits and Keller Road to the sea road. But what? In the absence of a public transport route, the neighborhood is already congested today and if they travel through it Thousands of vehicles all day to Mtm and will go through it in the evening, it will be 3-4 times more congested throughout the hours of the day. Imagine the residents of Shimshon Vardia and Kiryat Safar coming up the Carmelia roads and trying to get out in front and honking their horns to the axis of the ridge. Traffic jams on the Sea Road will be replicated: at 5 o'clock in the evening about 4000 vehicles will enter Kabvir and Carmelia - and try to leave them to go home to the Ridge neighborhoods. This will make them truly imprisoned. And created a danger that fire trucks would not be brought in or out of them - huge traffic jams at the entrance to them in the mornings, throughout the day and in the evening and at night through them. In fact, the lives of the residents will become hell.
And what will happen in a fire?
same thing Thousands of residents at once will try to get into their cars instead of a public transportation system for rescuing residents through bus wrecks - remember the bus with 40 dead that was caught in a fire screen on the back of the mountain in Beit Oren. Now imagine hundreds of vehicles in a traffic jam to get out of the neighborhoods, trapped in their cars and a fire in the midst of a sea breeze jumping and spreading On the back of the mountain, one car broke down or caught on fire. On the way down from the Freud road, such a disaster happened. Luckily, the police closed the Freud road - so what do you do? For all the neighborhoods??
So what is the solution you ask? Integrated solution:
A. Large pools of water at the edge of wadis for emergency release.
B. The creation of circular emergency shelters for buses and trucks to evacuate residents in an emergency. These will be used by fire engines and ambulances to quickly reach the Shechtans at any time. For example, in Carmelia: the Zafarir - Leah - Hana - Rachel - Moriah shelter. circular. At the expense of parking lots in Zafarir and the creation of a one-way road in Bhana and Leah.
third. Creating pedestrian and bicycle bridges for quick passage between the neighborhoods. In an emergency, the residents of Carmelia will be able to evacuate on foot to Kabirim, or travel by bicycle directly to the Carmel hospital in the estate, for example.
d. Creation of descent and ascent roads for buses only in Kabirim, Ramat Begin and between Dania and the Carmelite Castle. In an emergency, fire engines will be used.
These downhill roads are unnecessary, expensive, destructive, dangerous and will not solve any problem, they will only add to the problem of private vehicles passing through them.
How can the rescue road be carried out from Ramat Vishnitz?
A question for Mr. Etzioni that we will understand once and for all
Is it true that you left the city council and transferred votes to Klish?
Advertisements and lots of talk
and me and me and us and us
Most Haifa residents know and understand well...
What and who and how much truth%…..
