The new schedule includes daily departures at 11:20 p.m. from Gebze to Halkalı and at 11:28 p.m. from Halkalı to Gebze. The adjustment was expected to address increasing passenger demand and enhance late-night mobility.

In addition, maritime traffic in the Istanbul Strait resumed on Sunday after a temporary suspension due to a mechanical failure on a dry cargo vessel. The ship, named Zaltron, measures 185 meters in length and experienced an engine malfunction off Kurucesme.

The vessel was safely anchored at the Ahirkapi Anchorage Area under the coordination of the Istanbul Vessel Traffic Services Center. This incident highlights the complexities of managing maritime traffic in busy waterways.

On a different note, John Stones, a key player for Manchester City, is recognized for his contributions in high-stakes matches, including the UEFA Champions League final. He made 95 appearances for Everton before joining Manchester City and scored his first and only goal for Everton against Manchester United.

Stones has averaged more than 20 games per season in the Premier League on three occasions. Recently, he completed the most dribbles in a UEFA Champions League final since Lionel Messi in 2015. However, he announced plans to conclude his time at Manchester City this summer.

This expansion of Marmaray services aligns with Istanbul’s ongoing efforts to enhance its public transportation network amid growing demand for late-hour travel.
