Concrete Traves to be Placed Under the Rails at the Izmit YHT Transition Arrived

Concrete sleepers to be placed under the rails at the Izmit YHT crossing have arrived.

While the construction of the High Speed ​​Train (YHT) Project, which will reduce the Istanbul-Ankara journey to approximately 2 hours and is planned to be completed on October 29, 2013, between Gebze and Izmit, the concrete traves that will be placed under the new rails in the city pass of Izmit came.
While the construction of the High Speed ​​Train (YHT) Project, which will reduce the Istanbul-Ankara journey to approximately 2 hours and is planned to be completed on October 29, 2013, between Gebze and Izmit, the concrete traves that will be placed under the new rails in the city pass of Izmit came.

Due to the fact that the High Speed ​​​​Train Line has dense residential and industrial areas, the most important transit route between Gebze and Izmit, which started on February 1, when all train services were stopped, the rails were completely dismantled in some regions. While the 1890-year-old railway line built in 122 was completely renewed, the physical and geometric conditions of the existing line were made suitable for YHT operation.

NEW OIL AND SUBCONTRACTORS

In addition to the previous explanations, the 9 tunnel, the 10 bridge, the 122 grille, as well as the 28 new culverts and the 2 underpasses, were constructed with extremely durable concrete traves to be laid under the rails in some of the crossings between Izmit and Gebze. The bseton tranvers, which will be used in the urban transition, were brought into the carriages and began to accumulate along the line.

IMPROVING THE BANLING LINE

According to the statements made by the Ministry of Transport, the project, which is planned to be completed on October 29, 2013, continues without interruption. When the line is completed, the Istanbul-Ankara journey will be reduced to 2 hours by Fast Train. Along with the YHT Line, the suburban train line parallel to the same line is also being improved. In addition, taking into account the industrial city of Kocaeli and the need to transport industrial products to the ports, it was decided to build a third line.

INCREASED THE TRAFFIC LOAD OF HIGHWAY

As it is known, due to the YHT Line project, as of February 1, 2012, Istanbul's railway connection with Anatolia has also been disconnected. This, in turn, brought an additional burden to traffic on highways at the Kocaeli crossing, which is a bridge between Istanbul and Anatolia. Especially this summer, the increase in road traffic was felt to a large extent due to the cessation of suburban and other train services. However, when the project is completed, this problem will come to an end.
