Türkiye has adopted a new decision regarding the privatization of two state-operated Bosphorus bridges in Istanbul, along with highways, ring roads and connecting roads.
Under the new framework, the bridges, highways and ring roads will not be privatized as a single package but may be offered either together or separately.
A presidential decree published in the Official Gazette on Sept. 5 expanded the privatization program covering the Bosphorus (15 July Martyrs) Bridge and the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge, as well as four highways, to include the Nigde-Pozanti Motorway, the Gaziantep Ring Motorway and the Caglayan Junction-Yenisehir Junction section of the Bursa Ring Road.
