Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Adil Karaismailoğlu announced that 45 thousand vehicles passed through the Çanakkale Bridge on March 27, which is guaranteed to pass 6 vehicles per day.
Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Adil Karaismailoğlu spoke at the Antalya Airport Project Public-Private Cooperation Tender Rent Down Payment Ceremony. Karaismailoğlu, in his speech, said that the number of vehicles passing through the 45 Çanakkale Bridge, which was guaranteed for 16 thousand vehicles per day and 425 million 1915 thousand vehicles annually, was 6 thousand.
Responding to the criticisms regarding the vehicle pass guarantee given for the bridge, Karaismailoğlu said, "Will 45 thousand vehicles pass daily through the Çanakkale Bridge?" Of course, it will pass when the time comes. 6 thousand vehicles passed yesterday. We should not get hung up on the numbers, when the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge was built, it reached 15 thousand vehicles at the end of 100 years. Today, 220 thousand vehicles pass through the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge. These projects need to be thought long-term. Vehicle warranty is a unit of vehicle equivalent for the return of the total cost of construction and operating, financial and heavy maintenance costs. That's why you shouldn't get hung up on those vehicle numbers. Look, we provide a completely direct cash income flow in airlines. We get a direct cash income stream.”
