Could use trams above ground too as a supplement to the tube They have it in melbourne - its quite cute actually and everyone, residents, tourists, the lot, love it. Cheap to run too

Trams may look like fun to tourists, but when you're a driver who has to share the road with trams, it becomes a lot less fun than it looks. The only roads in Melbourne where trams actually work well are the wider roads where trams actually have their own section and cars go either side of them. The width of most roads in Tel Aviv makes traffic bad enough - adding trams would be a disaster.

7. please let this be serious

I hope this is real. Because the city is chocking up with traffic. We need better space, more green (plant trees instead of building parking lots), i am sure there are talented city planners in Tel Aviv its just a pity to see that money is much more important than anything, even their own residents' health. So I say - subway = less cars on the street = better life for all of us. We absolutely need subway, even if it has to take years to build.
