The municipality of Or Yehuda threatens to file a huge lawsuit against the NATA company and stops the issuance of permits in the Neve Ayalon neighborhood of hundreds of construction permits that are supposed to be built in the neighborhood. A house in the park that began to be inhabited about a year ago and over 1,000 families live there.

"When the municipality of Or Yehuda under my leadership promoted the establishment of a Beit neighborhood in the park, it was based on the state's promise to promote the infrastructure, including the access roads to the neighborhood," explains the mayor, Liat Shohat.

"Unfortunately, we internalize that promises are separate and reality is separate.

"While we as a municipality fulfilled our part of the agreement and took care of the housing of about 1,300 families in the neighborhood, the NTA company has been delaying for over a year and a half the opening of the entrance and exit junction to the neighborhood, an issue on which the NTA company believes," Shohat continues.

"We were promised that the intersection would be open to traffic in March 2021, and after a year and a half we receive apologetic answers from the company and every month we are informed of another delay"

Following these things, the municipality of Or Yehuda intends to file a huge lawsuit against the NATA company for breaking its promises and last week issued a warning letter before taking legal proceedings. normal when leaving it," Shohat writes in the warning letter. "Old residents who moved to live in the new neighborhood as part of the Pinoy Binui project and want to come to the old city to enjoy the services they have been used to for many years, literally cannot do so.

The high school students in the old city cannot come to school every morning, like the rest of the city's students."

In her letter, Shohat also states that the municipality has witnessed cases where residents of the neighborhood climb over fences and cross the road in a life-threatening manner, all to avoid the bypass road, and this in view of the lack of an intersection that was supposed to be built ahead of time.

"In view of the failure of the NTA, there is an obstacle to the entry of public transportation into and out of the neighborhood in a way that frustrates the residents' use of public transportation."

In addition to the lawsuit that the municipality is working on and its preparation to operate a system of shuttles in order to provide a response to the residents, the mayor, Liat Shochat, decided to freeze the issuance of permits for hundreds of housing units in the Neve Ayalon neighborhood, which is also due to be built these days.

"In light of the irresponsible and negligent behavior of the NATA company and the fact that the state is not meeting its obligations under the umbrella agreement, I have decided that the housing units that are so important to the state will not be promoted until the basic access roads in the Beit Ba Park neighborhood are promoted," Shohat continues. "I will not allow our residents to be turned To the hostages in light of the negligent conduct of the NTA, which avoids giving answers and solutions to the public."
