The Ministry of Finance in Israel is publishing a tender for operating the congestion charge in the Tel Aviv metropolitan region. The tender includes planning, construction, operation, and maintenance of the project, which is set to be launched in 2026. Minister of Transport Miri Regev, who previously opposed the project, has reportedly dropped her opposition in exchange for financing railways to Kiryat Shmona and Eilat. The congestion charge is expected to generate NIS 1.3 billion annually for the state coffers and will fund public transport projects and the Metro.
