Government policy at the time was to create a contiguous link from Shmuel Hanavi to French Hill and the campus of Hebrew University of Jerusalem on Mount Scopus . A new bus line , number 9 , was inaugurated to link the Mount Scopus campus with the campus in Givat Ram , built when the road to Mount Scopus was blocked by the Jordanians . The route of the bus followed the route of the convoy attacked on April 13 , 1948 , killing doctors and nurses of Hadassah Hospital
