Heavy rainfall is affecting Istanbul. Due to the impact of the rain, traffic congestion has occurred on main arteries and side roads. Following the intermittent rainfall in the city, puddles have formed on the roads.
In Avcılar, manhole covers became clogged due to the heavy rain, making it difficult for drivers to proceed on the streets. Traffic congestion on the D-100 highway, which began in Küçükçekmece, continued through Bahçelievler, Bakırköy, Cevizlibağ, the Haliç Bridge, Okmeydanı, and Mecidiyeköy. Vehicles struggled to move on the D-100 highway near Kartal and on the Sultanbeyli-Sancaktepe TEM Highway. On Atayolu Street in Sancaktepe, water overflowing from manholes spread onto the roads due to the intense rainfall.
According to the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (İBB) Cep Trafik application, traffic density across the city reached 80 percent at 15:25. The density was measured at 80 percent on both the European and Asian sides.
