Instigating growth — public transportation solutions that create social and economic value
Developing a high-quality public transportation network is critical to a city’s ability to function and grow. Good public transport is characterized by high frequency and adherence to schedules, making it a genuine and convenient alternative to the private car. We plan public transportation systems that reduce road congestion, improve social accessibility and strengthen peripheral regions. The result: a higher quality of life for residents and an improved urban environment.
At M.T.N. we specialize in planning and advising on every type of public transportation project
from urban and interurban buses (including electric buses), through BRT systems (bus rapid transit networks) and light rail, with all their components (integrated transport hubs, Park & Ride facilities, terminals and end stations). We integrate every component of the system into the planning, including the supporting infrastructure network, in order to enable convenient connectivity between the different modes of transport.
Ground-breaking planning — partners in pioneering projects
We were partners in planning projects that led to a significant change in public transportation in Israel, such as the Red Line of the Jerusalem Light Rail (the first line of its kind in the country) and the Metronit in Haifa (Israel’s first BRT system).
Since then we have continued to plan national projects, including the design of additional light rail lines, public transport lanes, terminals and transit stations.
The combination of meticulous planning and accumulated experience allows us to lead complex undertakings from the very first stage.
Our advantages
The added value for you
A broad view: experts in integrating every type of public transportation
Our expertise spans a wide range of public transport modes: dedicated bus lanes and routes (including electric technologies), bus rapid transit (BRT) systems, and light rail lines. We ensure optimal connectivity between all modes, including the design of supporting infrastructure (cycle path networks, Park & Ride facilities and terminals).
Comprehensive planning: from vision to operation on the ground
Our expertise gives you full support at every stage of the project: from the statutory planning level (urban outline plans and local outline plans), through detailed traffic design (Infra 1 and 2), to the construction and operation stages of urban and interurban public transport lanes. This ensures continuity in both planning and execution, and prevents gaps between the plan and the reality on the ground.
Strategic partnership: working with government ministries and authorities
We are proud to be active partners in the development of public transportation in Israel. As such, we work in close cooperation with the Ministry of Transport, the National Public Transport Authority, NTA — Metropolitan Mass Transit System, Netivei Israel and local authorities. This cooperation ensures full coordination, streamlined approval processes and successful implementation of projects.
Technological innovation: public transportation fit for a new era
Planning that ensures maximum safety for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers while addressing site challenges and dense urban environments, among other things through the integration of smart technologies.
