(Prime Minister's Office) The Israeli Cabinet Sunday approved a five-year plan for the continued development of Jerusalem's Western Wall plaza and its environs. The plan is designed to preserve - and improve accessibility to - archaeological findings, upgrade physical and transportation infrastructures, and hold educational activities for students and soldiers. The plan for 2011-2015 is a direct continuation of the five-year plan approved in 2004, which led to a major increase in the annual number of visitors to the Western Wall from two million people to eight million in 2009. The Western Wall is the most visited site in Israel. Thus, it is necessary to meet the traffic needs of private vehicles and public transportation, create access routes for emergency vehicles, increase access for the handicapped and provide for the flow of visitors on weekdays and holidays. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, "The Western Wall is the Jewish People's most important heritage site." 2010-11-22 08:10:51Full Article
