  • The name, Metronit, was among some 500 suggestions submitted by the public in a prize-winning competition. Metronit was chosen for several reasons. The name itself was deemed to be easily expressed, catchy and unique. The Hebrew word, "Matronit" - meaning "respectable woman" or "lady" in Hebrew - was felt to convey a feeling of elegance and respectability. The prefix "Metro-" implies an efficient metropolitan rapid transportation system; the trailing "-it" is in line with Haifa's existing Carmelit funicular subway and the Shkhunatit internal neighbourhood minibus system ~Wikipedia

    Great filming, my friend! Now the Metronit turns 10 years! Formerly the company was "Dan Tzafon". Now the bus company is "Superbus", since October 2021. The Metronit buses are Otokar, and Golden Dragon buses.

    Haifa is such a beautiful city. What a nice remembrance of my times there through the lens of the BRT

    Hi i live in haifa, and i use the "Metronit" almost every day... It's a very good sistem, its much cheaper and quicker than building a tram rail, and it's very fast, it never gets stuck in traffic.
    A few months ago they started using electric buses (u can see some in the video, those with the big white boxes on the roof, that's the batteries)
    Thank you for the nice video!!

    BRT is a cool idea. Buses operate in their own right of way. Thanks Tim😀💚

    Will they run ART autonomous trams on this in future? - seems compatible and with triple capacity and more comfortable.

    About the description, as an Hebrew native speaker, "matronit" and "respectable woman" or "lady" is defiantly false.
    Lady = "ai-sha"
    respectable woman = "ai-sha me-chu-be-det"

    • @duploman0003
      @duploman0003 ปีที่แล้ว

      Matrona is the Latin word for respectable lady, so maybe he got it confused.

    • @Ynhockey
      @Ynhockey ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Matronit is definitely a valid Hebrew world for a respectable woman. It likely comes from Latin, but has been used in Hebrew in the 1st Century (Hazal), so it's at least as valid in Hebrew as in modern Latin-based languages.
