The Krayot (Hebrew: הקריות, "townships") (plural of Kirya) are a cluster of four small cities and two neighbourhoods of Haifa founded in the 1930s on the outskirts of the city of Haifa, Israel, in the Haifa Bay area.The Krayot include Kiryat Yam (pop. 36,700), Kiryat Motzkin (pop. 39,800), Kiryat Bialik (pop. 36,200), Kiryat Ata (pop. 33,800), as well as Kiryat Haim (pop. 26,960) and Kiryat Shmuel, Haifa (pop. 5,500, as of 2007.). A plan was formulated in 2003, and again in 2016 by Interior Minister Aryeh Deri, to merge the Krayot into one municipality. A proposed name for this city is Zvulun (after the biblical Zebulun, and the Zvulun Valley).

Krayot central bus station
Krayot central bus station

The Krayot central bus station (Hebrew: מרכזית הקריות: Merkazit HaKrayot) is a public transport terminal serving as a terminus for the Metronit bus rapid transit system, and as a station for local bus routes serving the Krayot suburbs of Haifa, Israel. Despite its name, the station is not located in the center of the Krayot but is located on the northern edge within the municipal boundaries of Kiryat Motzkin. Operations began in August 2013, coinciding with the commencement of the new Metronit system in the region. Since early 2014, the terminal has served as a terminus for three Metronit lines and some Egged bus routes. The Metronit lines currently departing from the terminal are Line 1 to Hof HaCarmel central bus station, that operates 24 hours, and Line 3, that travels through Kiryat Yam to the Hadar HaCarmel neighbourhood in Haifa, And Line 4 that travels like line 1 to Merkazit Hamifratz and then to Hof HaCarmel central bus station via the Carmel Tunnels ant the Grand Canyon. When the Metronit began, local bus routes were modified to account for the service, with several extended or rerouted to terminate at the Krayot central bus station. The Krayot central bus station includes car parking facilities and bus shelters. In late 2013, a small shopping mall was opened nearby. The Ministry of Transportation has plans to eventually construct a future second Kiryat Motzkin railway station near the site.Bus lines from Haifa to destinations north of the Krayot route via the Haifa-Acre Road (Route 4), some 500 meters east of the station, and do not enter the Krayot central bus station. Some do not even stop at the station adjacent to it.
