Metronit is the Haifa area's bus rapid transit system. It opened on August 16, 2013 after being constructed at a cost of 1.5 billion NIS (approximately 400 million USD). The Dan Bus Company operates Metronit using a fleet of 90 18.75 meter long MAN NG-363F articulated buses on three routes, each starting in Haifa and operating to the Krayot. Each line features exclusive lanes, off-board payment systems, and traffic signal priority. Thirty million people rode Metronit in its first year.
