Ministry of Transport Takes Over Construction of 17.5-Kilometer Asian-Side Metro Line


A new 17.5-kilometer rapid transit corridor featuring 14 stations has been incorporated into national infrastructure planning to connect Ümraniye, Kavacık, and Beykoz on the Asian side of Istanbul. By presidential decree published in the Official Gazette, execution of the Ümraniye–Kavacık–Beykoz metro project was transferred from the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (İBB) to the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure.

The line will provide orbital connectivity along the northern Bosphorus corridor and integrate with existing lines, including an interchange with the M5 Üsküdar–Sultanbeyli line at Ümraniye.
