One of the major obstacles facing Israel today is how to decongest roads. One answer has been to increase the public transportation infrastructure in the nation, which has helped to significantly reduce congestion on roads and is expected to further improve the situation. Another answer to the congestion involves building more roads. One recently built road is E1 another branch of a highway coming into Jerusalem from Judea and Samaria (a route that also has checkpoints as a result of terrorism in the past). Please pray for continued efforts to improve traffic flow in Israel, and for safety on those roads that remain congested.
