The status and road map of Turkish Accelerator Center (TAC) project is explained. TAC project is in third phase after feasibility and conceptual design phases with support of State Planning Organisation (SPO) of Turkey that the main aim of this phase is to complete of technical design report of TAC and to establish the first (test) facility. The first facility is planned as superconducting electron linac based IR FEL and bremsstrahlung facility. Third phase will be completed in 2013. It is planned that TAC will include a linac on ring type electron positron collider as a super charm factory, third and fourth generation light sources (SR and SASE FEL) and a proton facility. TAC collaboration is an inter-university collaboration of ten Turkish Universities under the coordination of Ankara University and TAC is a national project with international collaboration. In this study, the status of the project and the road map is explained with some results from design and construction studies.
