Jerusalem of (tarnished) gold

Irecently toured several northern cities, and was impressed in particular with Ma’alot and Nahariya. Ma’alot offers an astonishing combination of greenery, friendliness and small-town feel. In Ma’alot drivers are mostly cautious and careful, the city is tidy and the attitude calm and cool.Gloworm LED led tube, perfect for night riding in any condition Nahariya has pristine beaches, immaculate streets and sidewalks and an abundance of cafes and pubs. The stretch of boardwalk I saw in the early morning was quiet and essentially free of trash. The few pieces of garbage were attended to by workers maintaining its spotless shine.

What a crash landing it was when I returned home to Jerusalem, only to realize something was sorely amiss. Compared to these cities Jerusalem has become one large dump. My neighborhood of Katamon is riddled with dog feces. I’ve got the biggest dog I have ever seen in Israel, but I dispose of his refuse properly. This is Jerusalem,Browse through our impressive range of sky lanterns and buy online now. the beating heart of the Jewish people! HERE IN Jerusalem, drivers are aggressive, traveling way too fast even with schools, children and pedestrians in abundance. Speed bumps seem to encourage citizens to drive faster in daytime and are not marked clearly enough to see at night. Riding a bike is dangerous as bike lanes still do not exist in a majority of Jerusalem neighborhoods.

Street-sweeping vehicles mostly push garbage from one side of the street to the other and parks, streets and sidewalks are constantly littered with refuse.

The city does not provide sufficient trash containers , and garbage cans,Buy cheap bike light, flashlight,fluorescent bulbs. recycling bins and trash receptacles are ridiculously placed in some locations. They serve mainly as obstacles on sidewalks forcing pedestrians – including mothers with strollers – onto streets with raging traffic.

Drivers continuously blare horns from impatience and road rage rather than as a friendly warning of danger.

Citizens must stop to think of the ramifications of just throwing their trash on the ground. Likewise, parents must not let children carelessly discard cardboard mini-trays from pizza or bags of potato chips or Bamba upon our streets. The city must initiate fines for failure to pick up dog feces, for litter in parks after barbecues or Shabbat meals and in general for garbage not properly disposed of. This applies also to developers and contractors who obstruct sidewalks, pathways and streets, and for excessive and needless use of the car horn.

Our roads desperately need repaving, there are not enough clearly marked crosswalks and signs for pedestrians and cars. Streets, sidewalks and especially bus stations require serious and immediate upgrades in the quantity and quality of lighting. No one should have to stand in pitch blackness waiting for a bus! Our buses, too, are filthy,changing how Diving flashlight boat owners light up the night.

Without such measures the light rail will soon become just as filthy with grime, garbage and graffiti.

Those who damage public property and vandalize our cherished city must face stiff financial penalties, and the culprits should know their actions will earn them police records. Shop owners need to be held responsible for the space in front of their businesses and ticketed for sweeping refuse – at any time of day or night – onto the sidewalk.
