Turkey will build broadcast towers in metropolitan cities modeled after Camlica Tower — Europe’s tallest television and radio tower. The builds will occur under the new “Joint Tower Infrastructure Project for 30 Provinces,” Transport and Infrastructure Minister Abdulkadir Uraloğlu has announced, reports the HurriyetDailyNews.

Uraloğlu emphasized that the initiative aims to modernize the country’s broadcasting infrastructure. The new towers will provide centralized broadcast services to dozens of analog and digital broadcasters, improving efficiency, reducing electromagnetic pollution and replacing old antennas, he said.  

These towers will be equipped with next-generation broadcasting systems, increasing energy efficiency more than tenfold, and delivering more environmentally friendly, low-emission transmission services,” he added. Uraloğlu noted that the towers will not only provide technical improvements but also deliver “aesthetic and environmental benefits.”

By replacing outdated and scattered antenna systems, the project aims to eliminate “visual pollution in urban landscapes,” he said, according to the HurriyetDailyNews. “We will centralize broadcast services, reducing electromagnetic pollution. As a result, citizens will be exposed to radiation levels far below international safety standards, and cities will feature modern, architecturally integrated silhouettes,” Uraloğlu stated.
