"The sidewalk arrangement is not only carried out by technical units, but also CSR because it needs funds. The area will be equipped with well-arranged garden, pedestrian access, decorative lights, and so on," he explained, Friday (1/21).

In the middle of this 6-meter-wide sidewalk, pedestrian access will be built as wide as 1.2 meters and its right-left sides will be used as parks, including the remaining land next to the UKI Hospital's guardrail.
