The plan is located on a site that developed as a major crossroads which includes the Begin Highway, Bait road and a light rail line. In addition, in the future the valley will serve as another city entrance with the completion of Highway 16. The high traffic capacity of this area is suitable for uses that require high accessibility together with the option of utilizing road-adjacent lands.
The plan identifies a link between the proposed employment areas and the adjacent Machon Lev and Jerusalem College of Technology, places of technologically-oriented education. The plan aims to create a planning framework that will serve the employment and education uses and will encourage the interface between them, for their benefit and for the city’s alike.
Recently, the plan has been undergoing adjustments in order to suit the predicted traffic caused by changes in the planning of Road 16
