Yerushalayim’s Committee for Planning and Construction announced yesterday the approved construction of a new Blue Line light rail route that will run from Yerushalayim’s southern neighborhood of Gilo, through downtown Yerushalayim to the city’s northwestern neighborhood of Ramot.
“The city’s inhabitants will be able to benefit from less travel time, fewer traffic jams, cleaner air, and a more exciting urban environment,” remarked Yerushalayim’s Mayor Nir Barkat.

this is the opinion of the mayor not the opinion of the chareidi inhabitants of the neighborhoods that the new line will go through and cut off all the bus routes that are now in place.
