Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Şehir Hatları is transitioning to its summer schedule starting June 17, 2024.
In the summer schedule, which will continue until September 8, 2024, the number of voyages on some lines has been increased as part of new arrangements based on passenger density.
While 2 additional voyages have been added to the Beşiktaş-Adalar Line compared to the 2023 summer schedule, two more voyages have been added to the Ortaköy-Beşiktaş-Eminönü Line to cover weekends and public holidays.
One voyage has been added to the Aşiyan-Anadoluhisarı-Küçüksu Line, and unlike last year, 2 more voyages have been added to the Sarıyer-Rumeli Kavağı-Anadolu Kavağı Line as Anadolu Kavağı-Poyraz and Poyraz-Anadolu Kavağı.
10 NEW LINES HAD BEEN OPENED
The 10 new lines opened by Şehir Hatları between the end of 2019 and 2023 with the goal of increasing the share of sea transport in public transit (Aşiyan-Anadolu Hisarı-Küçüksu Ring Line, Beykoz Sarıyer Line, Aşiyan-Üsküdar Line, Kadıköy-Haliç Line, Beşiktaş-Haliç Line, Bostancı-Moda-Karaköy-Kabataş Line, Maltepe-Adalar Line, Bostancı-Adalar Ring Line, Çengelköy-Kabataş Line, Ortaköy-Beşiktaş-Eminönü Line) will continue to serve during the summer schedule.
