Traffic-relief reform will not come to a vote, Ynet reports

According to Ynet, the reform intended to ease traffic congestion will not be voted on under pressure from Haredi parties. No further details are available about the specific bill or when it may be rescheduled.

The move adds to a series of legislative delays attributed to Haredi coalition pressure. As The Zioneer previously reported, the daycare subsidy bill and the metropolitan transit authority bill were similarly stalled. The current traffic-relief reform, covered by Ynet, now appears to be the latest casualty. The specific bill has not been identified, and it is unclear whether it will be rescheduled.
