Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan Kağıthane- Gayrettepe-Istanbul Airport Tunnel Metro Project First Light Ceremony attended a video conference. Speaking at the ceremony, Karaismailoğlu said that they were at an important turning point in Gayrettepe - Kağıthane - İstanbul Airport Metro, a special example of the ministry's investments in the city rail system.
Karaismailoğlu said: “After our tunnel excavation work exceeding 68 kilometers with double tubes, we arrive at Gayrettepe Station. We broke the world records in the number and speed of tunnel digging machines in this project, where we realized the first rail welding on January 18 with your adventions. We will also break the record we have broken at the construction speed, also at the operating speed. On our 37,5 km line, our first fully automatic and then driverless trains will break the metro speed record at 9 km / h among 120 stations. Every day, 600 thousand of our nurses will travel between Gayrettepe-Istanbul Airport in a short time of 35 minutes. This figure is more than the population center of many cities in Turkey. While our metro line passes through the borders of Beşiktaş, Şişli, Kağıthane, Eyüp and Arnavutköy districts, it will significantly reduce the traffic load in the city road. Passenger transportation on Gayrettepe-Kağıthane-Istanbul Airport line will be easier, more comfortable and faster. When this project is completed, also; At Gayrettepe Station, Yenikapı-Taksim-Hacıosman line and metrobus are the continuation of this line and the construction is underway.Halkalı Integration from Kayaşehir Station to Başakşehir City Hospital will be provided at Kağıthane Station; Kabataş-Mecidiyeköy-Mahmutbey metro line, and at Istanbul Airport Station; Passenger transfer will be possible with the high-speed train line. Good luck. I also find it useful to state that; Our project is progressing with the precautions we have taken for the coronavirus (Kovid-19) epidemic that deeply affects the whole world. Because of the Kovid-19 outbreak, we brought important arrangements to our line tunnel excavations, employees' living spaces, social distance and hygiene rules. ”
