In the northern regions of Istanbul’s Anatolian side, especially in the Çekmeköy section of the Northern Marmara Highway, dense fog has been causing visibility issues. While there have been no major disruptions in traffic, reduced visibility has been reported on some main roads and viaducts. The Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality’s Cep Trafik application indicates that traffic congestion in the city was measured at 45% as of 07.25.
The fog has been affecting various areas on the Anatolian side of Istanbul, leading to decreased visibility and potentially hazardous driving conditions. Despite this, there have been no major incidents reported so far. The Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality has not issued any warnings or advisories regarding the fog, but drivers are urged to exercise caution and drive slowly in areas where visibility is reduced.
The fog has not caused any significant disruptions in traffic flow, but drivers are advised to be cautious and stay alert while on the road. The Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality continues to monitor the situation and provide updates on traffic conditions throughout the city. The fog is expected to dissipate later in the day, but drivers are encouraged to remain vigilant and stay informed about any changes in weather conditions.
As the fog persists in certain areas of Istanbul’s Anatolian side, motorists are reminded to use their headlights and fog lights, if available, to increase visibility on the road. The Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality is working to ensure the safety of drivers and pedestrians in areas affected by the fog, and traffic flow is being monitored closely to prevent any potential issues. Despite the reduced visibility, authorities are confident that traffic will continue to move smoothly and safely throughout the city.
