Turkish Minister of Environment and Urbanization Murat Kurum recently said that the project would relief the shipping traffic of the Bosphorus and reduce accidents.
Kurum noted that six big accidents occurred on the Bosphorus since the 1960s, killing 100 people and causing the leakage of 108,000 tons of oil into the strait.
"We see Canal Istanbul as a very significant project for the future of our country with its coastal structures, marinas, container ports and logistics centers," the minister said, adding the project would be carried out with "the highest-level environmental sensitivity."
