The rate of road construction in Israel is calculated according to population expansion, and not according to the increase in the number of vehicles. When you add the failing public transport, the result is catastrophic.
In September 2018, the Samuel Neaman Institute published an outline for a change in the patterns of travel formulated by Prof. Manuel Trajtenberg. At the center of the outline is a comprehensive reform of vehicle taxation: a gradual elimination of the taxes currently imposed, and in place of payment according to distance, which varies according to the location, time and number of passengers in the vehicle.
