Dear Istanbulites; We have completely finished the Mecidiyeköy-Mahmutbey Metro Line, which is a very important project for our beautiful city. The test drives we have carried out for 3 months passed without any problems. We had announced long ago that we will hold the opening ceremony of this line on October 28th. We postponed our opening ceremony because I am in the hospital, but we do not delay the commissioning of our metro.
Mecidiyeköy-Mahmutbey Metro will be at the service of Istanbul residents as of 28:12 noon on Wednesday, October 00. Our friends had planned a 2-day free usage before. I thought and decided that this line should be used free of charge for 10 days in Istanbul. Yes, this line will be free for 10 days just to make it a habit. Good luck.
Dear Istanbulites; I would like to thank the previous administrations of IMM. Because the rough construction of this line was completed in the previous period. We have also completed the construction of electromagnetic systems. If we were able to hold a ceremony, we had invited our previous presidents who served on this line, we would cut our ribbon together. Was not fortune. Of course, this line also has a continuation. Mecidiyekoy-Besiktas-Kabataş. Archeological studies have been going on for a long time at Beşiktaş station. KabataşArchaeological studies started in March. Construction work continues in other tunnels and stations. Our goal is to open this part in the first 2022 months of 6.
This year and 2021 will be the year for us to put previously stopped subways into service. Eminönü-Alibeyköy Tram will start its service very soon. Then, next year, Rumeli Hisarüstü-Aşiyan Funicular will be activated. We will open the first part of the Ataköy-İkitelli Metro Line in the first half of 2021.
