Fethiye Mayor Alim Karaca outlined four key projects and addressed bay cleaning efforts during the municipal council meeting:
Road Construction:
The municipality aims to collaborate with the metropolitan municipality to construct a 4,350 square meter road between Kayaköy and Hisarönü, scheduled to commence on November 1st and conclude on April 1st. This initiative aims to redirect traffic away from the city center, enhancing accessibility to popular destinations like Kayaköy and Ölüdeniz while alleviating congestion in Fethiye.
Bus Terminal Relocation:
An 8,000 square meter land transfer to the metropolitan city paves the way for relocating the bus terminal beneath the Çamköy market, a move set to improve traffic flow in the area.
Parking Solutions:
Plans include constructing a multi-storey car park at the Tuesday market’s clothing area and implementing six new smart intersections to mitigate traffic congestion in Fethiye.
On-Road Parking Management:
Management of on-road parking will transition to the Muğla Metropolitan Municipality from Sentpark, creating employment opportunities for Fethiye residents, including job-seeking youths who can work as attendants within the metropolitan enterprise.
Bay Cleaning Priority:
Emphasizing the importance of stream improvement, efforts to clean the bay will focus on rehabilitating DSI channels and constructing settling ponds before undertaking cleaning initiatives, funded by the metropolitan budget and long-term loans.
