Our Legacy for Future Generations
Kalyon İnşaat's Legacy for Future Generations
The World's Foremost Global Transfer Hub / Istanbul Airport
It successfully completed Istanbul Airport, Türkiye's largest infrastructure project, established on 7 October 2013 with the mission of providing a new airport for Istanbul, a city ranked among the world's most developed and home to many civilizations for thousands of years, after a record construction period of 42 months.
Serving passengers with an annual capacity of 90 million and a 1.4 million square meter main terminal under one roof, Istanbul Airport is an international connection hub by virtue of its geopolitical location. It currently operates with its main terminal, three independent runways, air traffic control tower and support facilities.
A World First / TRNC Subsea Water Transmission Pipeline
With limited water resources, Cyprus obtains almost all its water from underground sources, which are declining daily. It became clear that piping water from Türkiye to the TRNC was the only lasting solution to this problem, and the TRNC Subsea Water Transmission Pipeline project was launched.
An 80 km suspended pipeline conveys 75 million m³ of water annually from Alaköprü Dam, built on Anamur Dragon Stream in Türkiye, to Geçitköy Dam in the TRNC. The project's sea crossing is a world first, using a suspended high density polyethylene (HDPE) pipeline 1.6 meters in diameter at a depth of 250 meters below sea level.
An Offshore Pipeline Carrying Natural Gas Between Two Continents / TANAP LOT 5
Through TANAP LOT 5, natural gas that crosses mountains, rivers, roads and railways to reach the Sea of Marmara continues its journey from Asia to Europe underwater. The TANAP sea crossing consists of a 34 km twin pipeline system, 36 inches in diameter. Water depths along this line through the Dardanelles reach 65 m.
Safe, High Quality and Uninterrupted Transport to Istanbul / Northern Marmara Motorway
The Northern Marmara Motorway, a total of 33 km linking Asia and Europe, is a transport investment of high standards, safety, quality and continuity that eases travel in the Marmara Region, home to Türkiye's largest industrial areas.
The four lane tunnels of the Northern Marmara Motorway are the world's widest. The motorway route between Tekirdağ and Sakarya connects with the Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge and Istanbul Airport access roads, substantially reducing traffic loads that exceed the capacity of existing networks, particularly the Bosphorus crossings.

Türkiye's Fastest Metro / Gayrettepe Istanbul Airport Metro
The Gayrettepe to Istanbul Airport and Halkalı to Istanbul Airport metro lines, approximately 70 km in total, provide fast, comfortable transport. The Gayrettepe Istanbul Airport metro line comprises nine stations and a total of 38 km of double track. Integrated with the city's major public transport interchanges and urban rail lines, it offers the fastest and most comfortable access to the airport.
