The plan also includes construction on four more sites totaling 486 dunams (121.5 acres) with 891,000 square meters of office and commercial space and 2,800 housing units.
Petah Tikva Mayor Rami Greenberg said, “The Hayarkon Park plan will raise the municipal image and allow a green perspective on a significant scale, which will position Petah Tikva as a leading city in the metropolitan region. Open land in the municipal space contributes to rest and relaxation and we continue to promote the plan more intensively with the relevant bodies for the welfare of the residents in the coming years.”
