The Mifratz Central Bus Station is the main bus station of the Haifa Bay (Mifratz Haifa) region which is the Eastern part of the Haifa metropolitan area. It opened on January 1, 2002 as part of the plan to realign Haifa's public transportation system whereby two major bus/rail stations were built, one in the Western and one in the Eastern part of the city in order to avoid the need for inter-city buses to travel into the center of the city to Haifa Bat Galim Central Bus Station. This allows for a more efficient distribution of Inter-city and Intra-city lines in and around Haifa. Since its opening all buses coming from the North and the Galilee which formerly ended at Haifa Bat Galim Central Bus Station now terminate at the Mifratz Central Bus Station and new more frequent lines operate between the two stations.
