Running Out of Land Reserves

Land reserves designated for housing

in Central and Tel Aviv districts will

last only for about 15 years.

In case of increasing land reserves

for all open land (excluding industrial

zones), they will be exhausted in

about 60 years.

Under these assumptions:

Current density is kept fixed

No urban renewal

Each district keeps its

proportional part in additional

housing units

Expected Significant Increase in Traffic Congestion In the Next 15 Years

Congestion in metropolitan areas will be doubled during rush-hours.

On average, each passenger will spend additional 60 minutes per day on the road.

Total man-hours wasted expected to reach 850 million a year.

The estimated loss in GDP is expected to grow to about 25 billion NIS per year.
