An internet line was drawn for the UYAP connection in the hall where the latest technology sound system was created.
In the hall where the air conditioning system was installed, courtroom furniture and accessories were made in the workshop affiliated with the Bolu Open Prison Work Institution, and the old plastic seats in the stands were replaced with new wooden and modern-style ones.
