Mayor Palancıoğlu: “We are always by your side!”

Melikgazi Mayor Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mustafa Palancıoğlu, who sets an example with his work that prioritizes the needs of citizens in the district, drew attention to the importance of the project in terms of awareness; “Overcoming obstacles is possible together. To make life easier for our disabled individuals, we must all be aware and not create obstacles. As Melikgazi Municipality, we provide an important service that will facilitate the transportation of our disabled citizens to hospitals: Barrier-Free Melikgazi. Our vehicle is designed to meet the needs of our disabled individuals. Citizens who need to go to public hospitals contact us and make appointments. My colleagues pick up these people from their homes, take them to the hospital, and then drop them off at their homes after the hospital procedures are completed. The minibus has a special ramp for easy boarding of wheelchairs and electric vehicles. As you know, May 10-16 is World Disability Week. I hope this week will contribute to increasing awareness. As Melikgazi Municipality, we are always by your side.” he said.
