Marmaray Commuter Railway Project

Tendered by Ministry of Transport, Maritime Affairs and Communications, Marmaray Commuter Railway project is being designed by Prota. The project will provide a new, high-capacity railway system, connecting Halkali on the European side and Gebze on the Asian side in İstanbul.

Marmaray Commuter Railway CR3 Contract covers the upgrading of 63 km of existing railway on both the Asian and European shores to connect with the 14 km Bosporus tube crossing, creating a 77 km cross-city commuter corridor linking Gebze and Halkali districts of Istanbul. It is considered to be one of the biggest transportation infrastructure projects in Europe.

Within the scope of the project, Prota performs engineering and architectural design services of bridges, tunnels, stations and other structures along with track-way alignment engineering and railroad design services.
