Completion of this major segment of the project will improve the infrastructure and quality of life for all who live and work in its central region.

"This project joins many other mega-projects that we have managed in Israel and abroad."

A tunnel boring machine (TBM) will be used for excavating the majority of this civil engineering project.

It will include the digging of underground tunnels in the Tel Aviv metropolitan area and construction of six underground train stations.

Shikun & Binui chairman Moshe Lahmani said: "This project joins the other groundbreaking projects that Shikun & Binui has carried out, such as the Highway 6 Toll Road that crosses Israel in its entirety from north to south, the Carmel Tunnels in Haifa, and hundreds of other roads and infrastructure projects that we have built, both in Israel and throughout the world."
