Do they still have vans that go from Strauss to Bnei Brak? If yes, how can I get more info when it goes, where to pick it up and how much it costs? Looking to go to R' Chaim in the most direct and cheapest way.

Also, how can I get to meron R' Shimon without a tour?

I know about those options, was hoping for more specific directions like which bus will take me there from Jerusalem (geulah area) or how much a cab should cost....
