Passage through the Strait of Istanbul becomes dangerous due to heavy traffic at the south entrance of the strait with an average of 2100 daily crossing by ferries, small passenger boats, sea buses etc. that are transporting the citizens' back and forth between Europe and Asia side of the Istanbul City. This crossing heavy traffic, especially in the southern part of the strait, causes high risks of collision for the transit vessels. The necessary measure to achieve a safe navigation is to consider the whole marine traffic including local ferry in this congested area. In order to achieve this, in this study, the control criteria are introduced to improve the new VTS (Vessel Traffic System) efficiency. The marine traffic simulation has been employed to determine the capability of encountering and one-way passage for large-size ships that pass through the congested area of the strait. And this simulation has been worked out within four categories, 100% (Rush-hour), 75%, 50%, and 25% crossing traffic density levels. This paper provides the control criteria that permit to navigate safely passing through for large-size ships based on the results of the simulation study by application of the environmental stress model. It is expected that this traffic control criteria will effect to maximize the importance of the new traffic system in the strait.
