Famagusta Municipality has completed the "Eşref Bitlis Street Free Port Lane Expansion and Signaling Construction Road and Repair Works Project." The project involved comprehensive road works, installations, and the activation of new traffic signals.

The project aims to address longstanding traffic safety issues at the intersection connecting Eşref Bitlis Avenue, Anafartalar Avenue, the Free Port exit, and Free Port Street. The newly implemented traffic lights and road arrangements are expected to reduce congestion, especially for large vehicles entering the road, and to mitigate traffic accidents in the area.
