Inside of HaMifratz Central Bus Station

Haifa Bay Central Bus Station (Hebrew: מרכזית המפרץ, Merkazit HaMifratz), known also as HaMifratz Central Bus Station is the main bus station of the Haifa Bay (Mifratz Haifa) district. It is located adjacent to Lev HaMifratz Mall and Lev HaMifratz Railway Station. It opened in 2002.

Overview

HaMifratz Central Bus Station serves local Egged bus lines within the city of Haifa and all suburban. Egged, Nateev Express and Superbus all operate intercity bus routes. All bus routes from the north and the Galilee which formerly terminated at the old Bat Galim Central Bus Station now terminate at HaMifratz station.

Future plans are to replace the current open-air bus station with a modern, enclosed structure, alongside massive road improvement projects in and around the station, and an extension of the nearby Lev HaMifratz Railway Station. There is also a proposal to build an aerial tramway or cable car system to connect HaMifratz CBS with the Technion university on Mount Carmel.[1]
