Call The Jewish News 354-5959 The road, 100 meters wide in this central section, would cut a formidable swath through scores of rural communities and have a drastic impact on their lives, even though no houses lie in the path of the right of way. Some 15,000 dunams in all would have to be expropriated in this stretch, says Levy, including tracts up to 700 dunams for in- dividual interchanges. The planners propose rezon- ing areas alongside the high- way to permit residents, many of them farmers, to develop commercial properties or sell land for industrial parks. "The road will be more than a transportation tool," says Levy. "It will be a tremendous lever for the orderly economic development of all the areas it passes through." Prof. Elisha Efrat, a Tel Aviv University geographer, believes that the Cross-Israel Highway will be a blight on the landscape and undo one of the basic premises of Israeli physical -planning. "The road will create an in- evitable pull to the east and de- stroy what we have tried all these years to do: limit the growth of the Tel Aviv metro- politan area." It will, he says, cut through 75 rural communities, separat- ing many farmers from their fields. The amount of land to be expropriated, says Efrat, will be 25,000 dunams, not 15,000, and large tracts of farmland spared by the road itself will be transformed into shopping malls and industrial parks. An alternative to the new highway already exists, says Efrat, a former senior govern- ment planner. " If the Coastal Road and the Petah Tikva- Hadera Road are widened and interchanges built, they would have the same added capacity as Route No. 6." When future demand war- rants, says Efrat, Route No. 6 can be built but as a conven- tional road with two lanes in ei- ther direction. ❑ Jerusalem Post British Businessmen Want To Bid on Projects A group of British industrial- ists and businessmen told Is- rael Transportation Minister Yisrael Kessar they are inter- ested in bidding on several large transportation infrastructure projects. The 15-member group, led by British Transportation Minis- ter Lord Mackay, expressed in- terest in Ben-Gurion Airport's new terminal, the Carmel Tun- nel in Haifa and Tel Aviv's sub- urban railway system. Kessar told reporters the British also showed interest in shipping projects. Mackay told Kessar he will also be visiting Akaba to inter- est Jordan in creating a joint in- ternational airport with Israel in the Eilat/Akaba area. The group, which includes representatives from ABB, AEG and Westinghouse, will be visiting Eilat, Haifa and Tel Aviv to examine the country's transportation facilities.
