It turned out that the third runway of Istanbul Airport was built 690 meters shorter and 15 meters narrower than the tender specifications. Hüseyin Keskin, the head of IGA, who operated the Istanbul Airport last year, was appointed as the General Manager of DHMI.

According to the news of Yusuf Demir from SÖZCÜ; “The third runway of Istanbul Airport, which was opened by President and AKP President Recep Tayyip Erdogan the day before, would be 3 meters long and 750 meters wide according to the tender specifications. It was the same in all official statements made until the opening day.

At the opening on the previous day, it was understood that the track was 3 thousand 60 meters long and 45 meters wide. According to the project, while the track area should be a total of 225 thousand square meters, 137 thousand square meters were built. So the track has shrunk by 40 percent in total. In addition, 375 meters of concrete covering on one side of the track and asphalt remainder were also criticized.

LOCK NAME HÜSEYİN KESKİN

The runway was allegedly shortened to avoid land improvement and embankment costs. İGA, which undertakes the construction and operation of the airport, avoided answering SÖZCÜ's questions about shortening the runway and other claims.

According to the legislation, the authority to check whether the work is done according to the technical specifications in the tender is the State Airports Authority. On the other hand, Hüseyin Keskin was appointed as the general manager of DHMİ in July last year after the commissioning of the airport.

Keskin, until this appointment, Limak, Cengiz, Mapa and Kalyon partnership, who undertook the construction and operation of the project, was the Chief Executive Officer of İGA. 10 billion 247 million Euros (78.7 billion) investment, 22 billion 152 million euros (170.3 billion) tender price and total 32.4 billion euros (249.2 billion) drew attention to this assignment in the high-budget projects the history of Turkey economic size.

WILL IT ENTER THE CASE OF THE STATE?

Since the Canal Istanbul project could not be implemented on the planned date, 2.5 billion cubic meters of filling material could not be provided and the desired level of elevation in the Istanbul Airport land was reduced. The revision made regarding the height of the airport caused a decrease in the costs of the joint venture group that undertook the construction because less filling amount was required.

At that time, government officials announced that the difference would enter the state's vault. Likewise, it was a matter of curiosity whether the falling cost of the third runway, which was made shorter than the specifications, will be transferred to the state.
