TCDD make adjustment in tariff due to closure of Ankara railway section.

The freight trains passing by Ankara will have to change their route and go through Konya starting with 11th of July, due to engineering works on Sincan-Kayas section.

East-west traffic will flow through Konya

TCDD announced a “temporary” tariff change during Baskentray Project to limit the cost increase for freight trains which will have to use longer distance. According to this change, the new long-distance cost will be multiplied by 0.77. The new calculated cost could not be less than the short-distance cost.

Last train to Ankara Station on 10th of July

This discount will only be valid for domestic transports, not for international transports and empty wagons.
