This regulation, published in the Official Gazette on March 31, 2026, amends the Regulation on the Duties, Powers and Responsibilities of the General Directorate of Highways (KGM), originally issued on October 22, 2021. The amendment revises Article 19 by updating subparagraph (e) and removing subparagraphs (f), (g), and (ğ), replacing them with new subparagraphs (h) and (ı) that clarify and expand organizational responsibilities. The revised Article 19(e) consolidates form management and legislative work duties into a single provision, covering form development, removal of obsolete forms, ensuring procedural uniformity, and preparing implementation documents. New subparagraph (h) formalizes the process for defining, updating, and publishing job descriptions for all units and positions within the Directorate. Subparagraph (ı) assigns responsibility for coordinating the preparation of regulatory impact analysis reports related to laws and Presidential decrees. Article 23 is also amended by adding three new subparagraphs (f, g, ğ) related to training and internship programs. These provisions allow the Directorate to organize certified training programs open to both public and private sector participants, including foreign nationals, and to offer internships to secondary and university students, including foreign university students. The amendment also allows the Directorate to procure training services from experienced external personnel to improve training effectiveness. The regulation enters into force on the date of its publication and is executed by the Director General of Highways.
