ANKARA, Turkey - Turkey is studying ways to make it more attractive for commercial vessels to travel through a proposed canal would be built in the next decade as an alternative to the heavily congested Bosphorus Strait.
Transport Minister Mehmet Habib Soluk, said Thursday that the Turkey might reconsider its pricing policy costs for transit through the Bosporus Strait, a possible indication that these charges could be raised.
Increase the costs of the Bosphorus can encourage ships to use the Canal proposed in Istanbul.
The new canal would create a second navigable waterway linking the Mediterranean Sea and Black Sea.
