The approval of the General Directorate of Forestry for the Balçova Ropeway construction has been received: The approval expected from the General Directorate of Forestry for the start of the construction of the Balçova Ropeway Facilities, whose foundation was laid in April after being closed for six years, finally came.
After the closure of the 6 for a while, Balçova Cable Car Facilities, which were laid with a ceremony attended by the Mayor Aziz Kocaoğlu at the beginning of last April, experienced the demolition and construction process of İzmir people. According to the report of Ertan Gürcaner from Egeli Sabah, the facility, which was owned by the Regional Directorate of Forestry, was closed in 2007 on the grounds that there was no safety of life and property within the framework of the report prepared by the Chamber of Mechanical Engineers. The final approval for the facility, which could not be started for months due to the objections made to the Public Procurement Authority (GCC) and the court proceedings as a result of this, also came. The approval of the project by the Metropolitan Municipality in June recently came from the General Directorate of Forestry. Citizens for the cable car project returned to the story of the snake, "We hope that after this process will not come another obstacle," he said. After the Directorate approved the new ropeway project, Metropolitan Municipality immediately applied to Balçova Municipality for building license. As soon as the registration process was completed, it was learned that the construction would resume.
