Editing Transport in Israel (section)

=== Share taxis ===
Israel also has a [[share taxi]] service ({{langx|he|שירות}}, ''sherut''), run by several private companies, depending on location, in addition to regular taxicab services. The shared ''sherut'' service usually appears a yellow minivans and travel along the same path as the normal buses with identical route numbers. For a slightly higher price, the shared ''sherut'' service allows passengers to both hop on and hop off anywhere along the path of travel. During peak travel, often the time of travel can be shortened as the number of passengers is significantly small compared to normal bus services. Some routes continue to travel through the night and on Shabbat providing transport needs to the population when normal buses services cease. The beginning and end of the ''sherut'' vans may differ from the central bus station and on the weekends and evenings, the routes can also be altered for some services.{{citation needed|date=May 2017}} In 2015, share taxis carried 34.7 million passengers, 15.2 million of which were transported on city routes, with the rest going to suburban and inter-city routes.<ref name="themarket-sherut">{{cite news|url=http://www.themarker.com/dynamo/1.4104064|title=רפורמה במוניות השירות: משרד התחבורה יציג כ-100 קווים חדשים|trans-title=Share Taxi Reform: Transportation Ministry to Introduce About 100 New Lines|author=Dori, Oren|work=[[TheMarker]]|date=May 18, 2017|access-date=May 23, 2017|language=he}}</ref>
