title = "Istanbul Traffic Considerations"

content = """
Istanbul is a major chokepoint for Europe-Asia freight. Heavy congestion on the
OT1/O-3 ring road, TEM (Trans-European Motorway), and approaches to the Bosporus
crossings can add hours to transit times. Rush hours (07:00-10:00, 17:00-20:00)
and Friday afternoon exodus significantly increase delays. Trucks are sometimes
restricted or banned during peak periods on certain routes. Planning should
include buffer time and, where possible, night or off-peak movements. HGS
(Highway Electronic Toll System) is required for toll roads; trucks must have
valid HGS. Bosporus Crossing monitors real-time traffic and advises drivers on
optimal windows. Alternative routes via Gebze or the northern Marmara corridor
may be faster during incidents.
