Israel's Ministry of Transport has failed to meet its targets for increasing the length of public transport lanes and reducing road accident fatalities. Despite ambitious plans and budgets, the ministry has struggled to implement improvements in public transport and road safety. Political opposition from local authorities and inconsistent policies have hindered the promotion of bus lanes. The ministry's targets for 2024 have been airbrushed out of the government work plan, and only a fraction of the planned bus lanes were paved last year. The ministry has also encountered delays in major projects, including railway tracks and light rail lines.
