Municipalities in Turkey have implemented various initiatives to restructure and modernize local public transit systems.

In Erzurum, the Metropolitan Municipality Council established a new company, EBB Ulaşım Hizmetleri Anonim Şirketi, with an initial capital of 75 million TL to manage public transit, smart transportation systems, and parking services. This development coincided with updated fare schedules, setting the full city transit fare at 35 TL.

In Ordu, the Metropolitan Municipality launched the ‘Ünye City Inner Public Transport Transformation Project.’ This initiative consolidated four separate cooperatives into a single unified system, expanding the network from four to ten routes using a fleet of 118 new vehicles. The new system features electronic card payments via the ‘Ordumkart’ application and allows for seamless transfers between vehicles.
