Changes in train traffic: Israel Railways has announced that as part of the "Eastern Railroad" project, work will be carried out in the Hadera area that will significantly change train traffic on the shoreline next week.
According to the Israel Railways announcement, the Eastern Railroad project will constitute an additional axis between the northern and central and southern areas, and will enable a significant improvement of the train service throughout the country.
This, along with a significant increase in cargo transport, which will reduce road congestion and air pollution, and increase road safety.
As part of the project, Israel Railways will carry out engineering work in the Hadera area, including preparatory work for the connection of the future Eastern Railway with the existing coastline railway.
Due to the operation, there will be temporary changes in train traffic on the coastline - Haifa-Binyamina-Hadera-Tel Aviv - from Sunday (July 24) to Saturday evening (July 30).
These days, train traffic between Netanya stations to the south and Binyamina to the north will be stopped, and train service between Haifa and Tel Aviv will not be possible.
