Ashkelon Mass Transit System

The Ashkelon Mass Transit System is a transit system in the Ashkelon Subdistrict, Israel area, planned for 2040. The planning and execution authority was given to the governmental company. The system planning was held in parallel to a 2017 housing plan of the Ministry of Construction and Housing.
As of May 2025, the system contains 4 main lines – Blue, Turquoise, Red and Orange, which is an alternative path derived from the Red. It originally contained 3 secondary lines of which development was frozen – Greenish and Brown. The system connects to Line M1 of the Tel Aviv Metro in its southern section in Rehovot, and to the Blue Line of Gush Dan, and to complementary transport systems such as urban and interurban bus lanes and a proposed network of long-distance bike paths in the subdistrict named "Ofnidarom".
The first draft of the system, edited by the Israeli firm Gal Urban Systems Planning, was published in August 2020. According to the Master Plan for the Development of Israel's National Road Network for 2050, published in March 2021, the red and blue lines are classified as light rail lines.
