 The Trans-Israel Highway: Do We Know Enough to Proceed? 

תקציר:

The paper examines the planning and evaluation of the proposed Trans-Israel Highway (Route No. 6), Israel’s largest ever transport infrastructure project.  It finds that a worrying level of uncertainty remains in key realms, and suggests that given the project’s massive scale and the degree of caution demanded by Israel’s unique circumstances, the projects cost, value, impacts, and goals should be clarified before it proceeds in its current form.  Some of the specific steps necessary to evaluate the project adequately are described.
