  • Executive Summary on CAF Submission to the OHCHR
    Executive summary on CAF submission to the OHCHR The Jerusalem Light Rail and CAF In 2019, the Jerusalem Transportation Masterplan Team (the Israeli public entity entitled to manage the public transport in Jerusalem, in conjunction with the Israeli Jerusalem municipality and the Israeli Ministry of Transport), awarded a €1.8bn contract for the expansion of Israel’s Jerusalem Light Rail (JLR) system to the TransJerusalem J-Net Ltd, a consortium established by the Israeli construction company Shapir, Superbus and CAF. Shapir is one of the 112 companies listed in a UN database of businesses involved in Israel’s illegal settlements. The project in question includes the extension of the existing ‘Red Line’ and the construction of a new ‘Green Line’ of the JLR, as well as the supply of vehicles and technical services for the maintenance of the transportation network. The existing ‘Red Line’ and the planned extensions aim to connect illegal Israeli settlements in occupied East Jerusalem with each other, as well as with the western part of Jerusalem and Israel. The existing ‘Red Line’ serves the illegal Israeli settlements of Giv’at Shapira, Givat HaMivtar and Pisgat Ze'ev in occupied East Jerusalem. The project in which CAF is currently involved will extend the ‘Red Line’ to the settlement of Neve Yakov in East Jerusalem. The new ‘Green Line’ to be constructed will connect the Hebrew University’s Mount Scopus campus in East Jerusalem to the Gilo settlement to the South of Jerusalem, intersecting with the ‘Red Line’ at the settlement of Giv’at Shapira. The new line will also benefit other illegal settlements in its vicinity, including the new Givat Hamatos settlement that has been approved for construction.
