Within the scope of combating coronavirus, normalization steps are being taken in some areas as of tomorrow. The primary reflection of this is envisaged to be experienced in public transportation. Because all restrictions on public transport continue on Monday, May 11, even though IMM has given its capacity 100 percent, there may be problems. IMM made some warnings for Istanbulites to experience these problems at the lowest level. IMM's warnings include avoiding peak hours in public transportation, avoiding riding without a mask, and maintaining social distance.
As of May 19, new regulations are being made in the restrictions applied in the coronavirus (Covid-11) measures. Due to the fact that many businesses will be operational again from the beginning in the normalization calendar, a serious increase in the use of private vehicles but more importantly in public transportation is expected in Istanbul. Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IMM) warned Istanbul residents by reminding that extraordinary restrictions on public transportation vehicles are continuing. Sharing the data of 8 million 1 thousand passes in public transportation on Friday, May 336, IMM determined that the most public transportation was used since March 20, when strict measures were applied and citizens were complied with social isolation. Explaining that it will work with 100 percent capacity on Monday, IMM has invited everyone to protect their health by staying as much as possible due to the persistence of the epidemic.
