A landslide on Wednesday, 11 November, brought down a retaining wall at the car park of the Babadağ cable car in Ölüdeniz, in the Fethiye district of Muğla, İhlas News Agency (İHA) and local broadcaster Fethiye TV reported.
The ground movement hit the parking area of the Babadağ Teleferik facility in Ölüdeniz, according to both outlets. The retaining wall that gave way belongs to the cable car operation, İHA and Fethiye TV said.
The road serving the car park was closed as a safety measure after the slide, both outlets reported. Neither report gave a date for the road to reopen, and neither reported any injuries.
