Salam called for a plan for a modern, regular public transport network linking Lebanon's regions, arguing that citizens' use of public transport depends on their confidence in punctuality and cost savings.
lebanon debate focused on the livelihood and economic dimension of the statements and on the congestion crisis, while Lebanon ON focused on the environmental and health effects of reliance on private cars and the need for a modern transport network; aljadeed limited itself to the stated goal of developing shared transport and facilitating mobility.
