Minister of Public Works and Transportation Erhan Arıklı expressed his gratitude to Değirmenlik Akıncılar Mayor Ali Karavezirler for swiftly addressing the traffic congestion problem at Ercan Airport. In a social media post, Arıklı highlighted Karavezirler’s quick and effective intervention, which successfully regulated the traffic flow in the terminal area.

Arıklı shared that he sought assistance from Mayor Karavezirler, saying, “Mr. President, I need your help,” and received support within half an hour. He recalled that Karavezirler had previously helped resolve Ercan Airport’s electricity issues and praised the Mayor's latest efforts in managing the traffic situation.

Following a decision by the Council of Ministers, the authority to oversee traffic at Ercan Terminal was officially transferred to Değirmenlik Municipality. Mayor Karavezirler and his team promptly reorganized the traffic lanes and provided training for five police officers, who were then assigned to manage the airport's traffic.

Minister Arıklı reported that the congestion was resolved and citizen complaints ceased. He noted positive feedback from taxi drivers and airport employees, adding, “Traffic was running smoothly. We delivered the trust to the rightful owner,” while thanking Mayor Karavezirler for his continued support.
