The project line is approximately 14.15 km long and comprises 13 stations and one depot area. Starting from the Northern Ring Road and Fairground area, the line follows the Diyarbakır Road (E99) corridor and extends to the Southern Ring Road connection, serving the districts of Karaköprü, Haliliye, and Eyyübiye. The system will provide direct access between key destinations, including the Şanlıurfa Fair Center, Eyyübiye Training and Research Hospital, and major production, service, and activity centers located along the corridor.
The line has been planned as a protected at-grade system and designed for an operating speed of up to 70 km/h. Upon implementation, the project is expected to shift passenger demand from road-based transport to rail transit along the city's primary transportation corridor, reduce road traffic congestion, and strengthen integration with the existing public transport network.
The depot area is located within the university campus and covers a total area of 42,500 m². It is designed to accommodate 32 vehicles and includes a five-track maintenance workshop to support operational and maintenance activities.
The project is expected to enhance accessibility between the districts it serves, support urban integration, strengthen the city’s transportation infrastructure, and improve the overall efficiency of the public transport system.
