There is an entrance at Ankara Street at the station (Entrance 1). Entrance 2 will be located in the form of a pedestrian tunnel on Atatürk Street near the Sancaktepe District Governorship building and is currently in the planning stage. There are 6 elevators ('lifts' on station signage) and 10 escalators in the station.[4]
