Tel Aviv [Israel], March 14 (ANI/TPS): In what Israel's Ministry of Transport and Road Safety called a "significant upgrade" to public transportation in the southern greater Tel Aviv region, that includes switching to green buses, the "Superbus" company won a tender from the Ministry to operate public transportation in there with a contract estimated at approximately 2.5 billion Shekels (USD 680,000).
