 Vehicle

Parking within the university grounds is allowed only for permit holders. Every year, a lottery system is employed to allocate a fixed number of parking spaces on the various campuses to the students – for more information see here. For more information concerning the possibility of purchasing parking permits, see here or contact the campus security office (located near the north entrance gate of the Edmond J. Safra Campus). Free parking is available outside the campus in the vicinity of the north gate. Parking is limited, and so it is recommended to arrive early.

Light Rail (Future)

The Orange Line of the Jerusalem Light Rail – also known as the Campus Line – is a planned light rail line, connected to the Jerusalem Light Rail’s Green Line, that will connect the two campuses of the Hebrew University in Givat Ram and Mount Scopus. Following the breakdown of negotiations with the CityPass consortium regarding the construction of the line (as part of the extension of the Red Line), the Ministry of Transport published a new tender that included the line as part of the Green Line. In August 2019, the bid submitted by TransJerusalem J-Net Ltd to construct and manage the line was chosen.
