  • Pre-Qualify for the Design-Build of Israel Railway's ETCS L2 Onboard Project
    ISRAEL RAILWAYS LTD Development Division ,Signalling & Technology Div. Pre-Qualify for the Design-Build of Israel Railway's ETCS L2 Onboard Project General Technical Description 5 January 2016 ERTMS Project Page 1 of 12 ISRAEL RAILWAYS LTD Development Division ,Signalling & Technology Div. Chapter I- Project Background Facing a continuously growing demand in passenger and freight traffic, Israel Railways has to cope with an increasing number of trains. In the core network, there is the need to raise capacity significantly. In addition, the existing ATP system is subject to safety shortcomings, which can be mitigated by means of a Full Supervision ATC approach. Both reasons have led to the intention to introduce ETCS Level 2 on the Israeli network. In this chapter, details on the current situation and the motivation are provided. The current line length of Israel’s Railway Network is about 625 km. The total track length is about 1,175 km. This number includes the tracks of both directions and some station tracks. The signalling system is based on electronic and relay interlocking, using axle counters as well as isolated track circuits as a train detection system. A variant of INDUSI I60R is applied as an automatic train detection system and the signalling scheme is close to German H/V signalling. Nowadays, Israel’s Railway Network is within a development process. There are several new lines which are already under construction: Fast Track to Jerusalem: Tzomet Daniel – Jerusalem Ha’Uma Link from Ra‘anana to Coastal Line Ako-Carmiel Line Haifa- Beit Shean Line There are also some other planned lines that will connect relevant economic areas.

  • Moovit Launches Maas on a National Scale in Israel
    Moovit Launches MaaS on a National Scale in Israel Travelers will be able to plan their journeys and pay for public transit rides via the Moovit app without the need to handle cash, physical tickets, a card, or need to top-up passes in advance Ness Ziona - December 2020 - For the first time in Israel, starting Tuesday, ​ December 15, public transportation passengers will be able to enjoy a comprehensive Mobility as a Service (MaaS) experience - public transit information, travel planning and easy mobile payment - all in one application. Moovit and Pango, the two most popular transportation apps in Israel, each with ​ ​ ​ more than 2 million users in Israel, have teamed up to provide a solution that improves the payment and travel experience for passengers. The move will revolutionize payment for public transportation in Israel: riders will be able to pay for public transit tickets via the Moovit app, without having to buy and top up a Rav Kav card in advance, and fear losing or forgetting it. Eliminating the need to use change to pay for bus tickets will enable frequent and infrequent public transportation riders, including tourists, to easily pay with the Moovit app. This mobile ticketing solution will be available on all buses in Israel, and starting on February 1, will also be available on Israel Railways and the Carmelit in Haifa. This new service is also a revolution for riders in terms of fares. The app will calculate passenger’s trips at the end of every month and charge them retroactively according to the most economical fare combination.
