Konya Metropolitan Municipality’s Intercity Bus Terminal is setting an example through its Zero Waste and recycling initiatives.
Having established the Zero Waste Management System in 2021 and earned the Zero Waste Certificate from the Provincial Directorate of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, Konya Bus Terminal continues to implement environmentally responsible practices with determination, in line with the 2053 Zero Carbon and Green Development goals.
Registered under the “Clean Bus Terminal” brand by the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office, the Konya Bus Terminal recycled 14 tons and 790 kilograms of waste at the source throughout 2025 under the slogan “Clean Bus Terminal, Clean Environment.”
Thanks to these efforts, significant environmental benefits were achieved, including the preservation of 103 trees, savings of 51,288 kilowatt-hours of energy, 73 barrels of oil, and 33 cubic meters of landfill space, as well as a reduction of 1 ton and 432 kilograms of greenhouse gas emissions and the conservation of 4 tons of raw materials.
Konya Metropolitan Municipality will continue its Zero Waste and recycling initiatives at the environmentally friendly Konya Bus Terminal in the coming period, contributing both to the protection of natural resources and to the increased use of renewable energy sources.
