For Çamlıca Mosque, instead of the cable car, the metro is coming: It was canceled from the cable car project on the Mecidiyeköy-Çamlıca line, which is aimed to have traffic density for the Çamlıca Mosque in Istanbul. Instead, the metro line will be advanced.
Mecidiyeköy-Camlica cable car project was canceled. The project will carry passengers to the mosque in Camlica. The proposal for the annulment of the cable car project, which also includes the 10 station on the 6 kilometer line and which was included in the 2016 budget program of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IMM), was discussed at the IMM Assembly on July.
In the report of the Reconciliation and Public Works Commission, different transportation alternatives were studied on the cable car route between Mecidiyeköy-Zincirlikuyu-Altunizade-Camlica and therefore the cable car project was abandoned. The Commission found the cancellation of the project to be of public interest. The decision of annulment was approved by the CHP and AKP members. [more…]
