What is the total number of personnel
                presently employed in the project? What   “Ayrıca,

                number be approximately when the project

                In line with the July 2016 data, approximately
                7.000  personnel  are  employed  in  Gebze-  ve Körfez

                phases at the present? We know that the
                section with the highest expectation of
                income is Phase 1 DİLOVASI – GEMLİK
                section. What is the revenue projection
                between the phases?
                General completion ratio of the project is
                around 61%, with Phase I = 100%, Phase 2A =
                83%, Phase 2B = 26%.
                When the whole motorway is opened for
                operation, our toll booth projection is 300-
                350 million US Dollars for Phase 1,  30-40
                million US Dollars for Phase 2A and 200-250
                million US Dollars for Phase 2B.

                Highways had removed all the barriers on
                motorways and switched from card pass
                system to fast pass system for the purpose
                of decreasing the congestion. It is known
                that quite a few illegal passages are being
                made on motorways and a serious revenue
                loss is caused, even though there is a
                penalty fine. We know that barriers and toll
                booths are placed on all our motorways in
                our project. How did you make the Highways   Oksijen Shopınn
