Hundreds of police officers and security forces, with the assistance of ushers, will be deployed to Har HaZesim and in the kever complex itself to maintain public order and security. No private vehicles will be allowed entry to the Har HaZeisim area during the event. Buses (Line 51) will be available from Rechov Shmuel HaNavi to the kever complex and back on Monday evening from 7 p.m. to 1:30 a.m. and on Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. This year, the Rabbanut of Israel Police, headed by Deputy Chief HaRav Rami Birchiyahu worked together with Rebbes, Roshei Yeshivos and Rabbanim in order to ensure the safety of all participants.
