Istanbul's metro covers a large portion of the big city. The metro in Istanbul connects you to most important parts of the city, shopping malls and other parts. Now, in 2023, Istanbul's metro route will have a new addition! 
The new metro route was inaugurated today on Monday, Jan 2nd. This new route, so far, will connect Kabataş and Mahmutbey districts with a total of 19 stations.
The new line (Mecidiyeköy-Fulya-Yıldız) is 2 kilometers long is now operational. in 2022, Istanbul's IBB had some ambitious projects, from waste water treatment plant, the new metro lined, and the Dudullu-Bostancı metro line which will be opened on Jan 6th 2023. These projects for the big city costed around $1.07 billion or 20 billion TL.
The total length of the Kabataş-Mahmutbey line is 24.5 kilometers. The route, which consists of 19 stations, will have a capacity of 70,000 passengers in one direction. The route will pass through the districts of Beyoğlu, Beşiktaş, Şişli, Kağıthane, Eyüpsultan, Gaziosmanpaşa, Esenler and Bağcılar.
The Kabataş Station will be integrated into the Kabataş-Taksim-Funicular route and the Kabataş-Bağcılar tram route. The Yenikapı-Mecidiyeköy route will also be integrated with the said route. The final integration will be with the Otogar-Bağcılar-Kirazlı-Basakşehir-Olympic Metro route from Mahmutbey Station.
Confused? Same honestly. Soon, when the new metro map for Istanbul is out, I will cover that, and hopefully we see the changes and how it affects us.
