Special Coordinator for Egged's Mehadrin Lines in
Jerusalem Appointed
by Betzalel Kahn
Yossi Chachkes, director of Egged's Jerusalem bureau,
announced the appointment of Ram Oren as coordinator-
supervisor of the mehadrin and standard bus lines in
the city's chareidi neighborhoods.
Chachkes says the new appointee, who is a shomer mitzvos,
is certain to improve the level of service that chareidi
public transportation users receive in Jerusalem and will
help promote the mehadrin lines. "Ram Oren is very
familiar with the working arrangements at Egged and is
committed to the chareidi sector in which he lives. Without a
doubt this will help him significantly in designing the
service for chareidi passengers," said Chachkes.
Before his appointment, Oren, who has extensive experience in
a variety of positions at Egged, met with activists working
to promote the mehadrin bus lines and received
brochos from rabbonim. He hoped he will be able to
serve as a liaison between the chareidi sector's
transportation needs and Egged Jerusalem operations. "Our
sector makes much use of public transportation and deserves
maximum, efficient service," Oren said. "We will do
everything we can to meet the high expectations, im
yirtzeh Hashem."
Members of Egged Jerusalem's Advisory Council for Matters of
Public Transportation in the Chareidi Sector welcomed the new
appointee. "The appointment of a supervisor with extensive
authority who is aware of the chareidi public's needs and is
familiar with Egged's working regulations is an expression of
Egged's resolute decision to provide the chareidi passenger
with optimal, efficient service," said one committee
member.
