Reflecting on the effects of the Troubles and how the so-called
Next week, the first train will depart from Karmiel to Tel Aviv and two new stations will be opened - Karmiel and Ahihud, which will enable hundreds of thousands of Galilee residents to reach the center of the country within an hour and a half. This is a particularly important change for the Arab communities, which suffer from huge unemployment rates and decades of discrimination in access to public transport, and for them the new train can be breathable - if they enjoy equal conditions in using it.
However, until the last few days there was a great deal of uncertainty regarding the rights of more than 100,000 residents in the many Arab communities in the area of the line, and whether they would receive the same benefits and services as the Jewish residents.
In order to put an end to this uncertainty, we at Sikkuy, urgently contacted the Transportation Ministry, in cooperation with Knesset Member Dov Khenin, chairman of the Knesset's subcommittee on public transportation, and called on the ministry to provide the same benefits to the nearby Arab communities as the Jewish residents of Carmiel and the surrounding area From the day of the first trip.
Today we are happy to announce that we succeeded!
The Ministry of Transportation has announced the addition of 10 special bus lines and the change of routes of existing lines that will arrive from now on to the train stations from the Arab communities. The Ministry of Transportation also promised that all passengers boarding the train at the Karmiel station, as well as residents from 15 Arab towns and villages, will be entitled to receive free tickets for three months and tickets at a 50% discount for two years.
After decades in which Arab citizens were discriminated against in transportation services, the time has come for the Israel Railways to be a means of transportation for all of us.
* This is the full list of communities that will be entitled to receive free tickets from Ahihud Station: Tamra, Aramshe, Shaab, Abu Snan, Jadida Makar, Arab El Naim, Kfar Yassif, Sheikh Danon, Yarka, Damida, Jules, Yirat, Majed al-Krum, Kaukab Abu al-Hija, Kabul
