The water level in the dam continues to rise in a controlled manner after the Yusufeli Dam and HEPP, which was built on the Çoruh River and is Turkey's first and the world's fifth highest dam with 275 meters in the arch dam class, and HEPP was put into service on November 22, 2022.
As of today, the amount of water stored in the dam basin has reached 183 million cubic meters, the water level has reached 502 elevation, and the water height has reached 100 meters. Vehicles and pedestrians are not allowed to enter the old district center, which is mostly under water, for security reasons. The road was closed to transportation by placing a concrete barrier and pouring soil.
