The development plan for the Pardes district in Or Yehuda is based on convenient access to public transportation, which allows the application of planning principles oriented toward walking, cycling, and public transportation. The district is designed as a dense urban complex centered around a future Metro station and integrates a wide variety of uses including residential, commercial and employment. The public spaces will serve pedestrians and cyclists only, without private vehicles. This enables a wide variety of new activities along the streets, including living areas, play and leisure centers.
