Overview
The construction of the 16.9 km (10.5 mi) long line in the west-east direction with 16 stations between Üsküdar and Çekmeköy, and its connection line to the depot with 3 km (1.9 mi) length began on 20 March 2012. Projected to cost about €564 million, the line is built by the Doğuş Construction Group and was expected to open in May 2015, however the expected opening day has been revised to 20 September 2016.
The line is expected to extend to Sabiha Gökçen International Airport in the future. [3][4]
