Regulatory Agreements Transform Public Transport Sector in Israel
What happened
The National Public Transport Authority and the Ministry of Transport signed sector-wide regulatory agreements with most major public transport operators. This initiative, valued at NIS 28 billion, establishes a new economic model for the transport sector. Under the new arrangement, Metropoline also signed an agreement with the Ministry of Transport.

Why it matters
The new model departs from the previous system where companies were compensated solely based on kilometers traveled. Revenue for operating companies will now be linked to service quality, ridership levels, and compliance with performance benchmarks. This change is expected to transform the sector and accelerate new competitive tenders.
