Home to more than 3.7 million people, Gush Dan accounts for approximately 45% of Israel's population. Many local and international companies are headquartered in the Tel Transportation Aviv Metropolitan Area, making it the country's primary financial hub. The residents of Gush Dan produce over 6 million motorized trips each day, relying heavily Projects on private vehicles as their main means of transport. Public transportation is mostly served by buses, with some suburban rail lines and accounts for less than 20% of all trips. Within approximately 30 years close to 6 million people are predicted to live in the Gush Dan area, producing over 10 million motorized trips daily. High population growth and private motor vehicle usage and low investment in public transport infrastructure have Since the early days of the British Mandate, and until only a few years ago, the task resulted in growing traffic congestion, which the Israeli Government seeks to address of planning and constructing Israel's transportation network was undertaken almost by investing hundreds of millions of U.S. dollars in building transportation infrastructure. exclusively by government entities.
