The Kocaeli Metropolitan Municipality has engaged in various administrative and emergency response activities. Initially, the municipality issued significant administrative fines across several sectors, including public transportation, environmental noise control, and consumer protection. These sanctions targeted violations such as driver misconduct, unauthorized music broadcasting, and the sale of expired products.

Following heavy rainfall and subsequent flooding, the municipality shifted focus toward disaster recovery. The Department of Roads and Maintenance deployed hundreds of personnel and vehicles to repair damaged roads, bridge crossings, and drainage infrastructure, including rainwater and roadside channels, to restore transportation safety and water drainage systems.
