Informing about the cancellation of the tender, Akif Ekici stated that they had previously declared the error of this tender to the public, and we opposed the urgent tender and route of this new rail system that will paralyze the urban traffic by organizing a press conference. Our right was revealed and the tender was canceled. The way of mind is one, what should be done by the Municipality has been done. While conducting such studies concerning the city, the opinion of the people in the region where the study is carried out should be taken, the opinion of the tradesman should be taken and such projects should be made. We have always opposed the logic of "I did it" and we will. We will not do anything without the public opinion. "It is beneficial to cancel this tender."
