The items forgotten by passengers in public transport vehicles that provide urban transportation service under the control of Antalya Metropolitan Municipality are kept in the lost property office. Dozens of items such as bicycles, flippers, scooters, mobile phones, money, suitcases and baby strollers are waiting for their owners in the warehouse in the lost property office.
Approximately a thousand items are forgotten monthly on buses, minibuses and trams, which are used for urban transportation in Antalya and transport thousands of citizens from one place to another comfortably every day. The Antalya Metropolitan Municipality Transportation Planning and Rail Systems Department's lost and found office safely stores the items that citizens forget while traveling on public transportation vehicles and trams.
