There are several "mehadrin" lines, both on intracity and intercity routes in Israel, where seating is supposedly separate. I don't ride the mehadrin lines within Jerusalem, they don't go places I generally go. I have been on one such intercity route (Jerusalem to Tzfat) but the bus was quite empty, and while men and women who were traveling together sat separately, there was no men's section or women's section and I think some less observant travelers of the opposite sex sat together.

My understanding is that at a legal level, the separation of the sexes on these routes is not codified into law but since most or all of the passengers wish to abide by this system, there are rarely issues. There was a proposal to codify this system into law on the routes where it is practiced in the parliament last year that (fortunately) did not pass.
