The Metrobüs has been so successful that the city is currently working on expanding the BRT system. Over the coming years, it is also planning to expand the routes over 100 km to the Asian side of the city. This will make the system even more attractive and further increase people’s mobility.

The results of the BRT system are impressive. The operating speed and passenger numbers are both extraordinarily high. With its high transport capacity, reliability and comfort, the CapaCity from Mercedes-Benz represents one of the key elements of the system. The BRT system has been flexibly adapted to suit Istanbul’s difficult geographical situation and various circumstances without the need for any major construction work. Metrobüs demonstrates just how well BRT can be adapted to very different city structures and existing transport systems, and can act as a connecting element.
