Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan said Tuesday that the region's rapid development requires a significant expansion of public transportation, and that a meeting with the Transport Ministry's professional team is scheduled soon.
Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan on Tuesday addressed the persistent shortage of public transportation in Judea and Samaria, stating that the region's rapid demographic and economic growth demands a corresponding expansion of bus lines.
'Shomron is changing its face, this requires many lines,' Dagan said. He added that a meeting with the Transport Ministry's professional team is scheduled in the near future.
The statement follows a call earlier Tuesday by journalist Boaz Golan, who urged the government to address the transit shortage and warned that inaction signals a lack of belief in the region. The public transportation issue in Judea and Samaria has been a recurring topic in recent weeks, with residents and local leaders pressing for improved service to accommodate growing communities.
