The plan responds to the needs of residents and visitors in terms of parking options.
The detailed plan to upgrade parking throughout the city emphasizes meeting the needs of Netanya residents, provides convenient parking options for employment zones, entertainment and leisure areas, responds to Netanya’s student population, senior citizens and all visitors to the city, which is the metropolis of the Sharon region.
