Bursa and Ankara are connected to Ankara at high speed

Bursa is Connecting to Istanbul and Ankara at High Speed: In the Bandırma-Bursa-Ayazma-Osmaneli High Speed ​​Train Project, 75 percent of the 22,15-kilometer Bursa-Yenişehir section has been completed. With the project that will end Bursa's 60-year longing for railways, the distance between Bursa-Istanbul and Bursa-Ankara will be 2 hours and 15 minutes, and the distance between Bursa-Eskişehir will be reduced to one hour.
A correspondent of the Republic of Turkey State Railways (TCDD), according to information received from the General Directorate, August 2011 ANN Construction Industry and Trade Inc. to tendered and Bursa-Yenisehir sector projects thrown into the formal basic range 2012't will be completed total of one thousand 138 days .
Regarding the infrastructure and construction operations of the project to be delivered on February 25, 2015, no extension of time is foreseen until now, while there will be many viaducts, bridges, under and overpasses and 12 tunnels in the Bursa-Yenişehir section. Three stations will be built in Bursa, Gürsu and Yenişehir. It is estimated that approximately 10 million 500 thousand cubic meters of excavation and 8 million 200 thousand cubic meters of filling will be carried out for all these.
Bursa's longing for 1891 years, which was cut off from the iron network after the Bursa-Mudanya Railway Line, built in 1953, was closed with a law in 60 and then dismantled, will end with the commissioning of the project. With the project, the distance between Bursa-Istanbul and Bursa-Ankara will be 2 hours and 15 minutes, and the distance between Bursa-Eskişehir will decrease to 1 hour.
5 kilometer tunnel
In the meantime, the construction of 22,15 tunnels, the longest of which reaches 4 meters, continues at full speed in the Bursa-Yenişehir section, whose physical realization reaches 920 percent. The workers involved in the construction of the tunnels work day and night in 12 shifts a day.
Support for excavation and shoring in T2, T3, T4, T6, T9 and T12 tunnels.
While the works continue in double direction in some of the tunnels and in one direction in some of the tunnels, 532 in the 2-meter T28,05 Tunnel, 253 in the 3-meter T912 Tunnel, 975 in the 4-meter T442 Tunnel, in the T2 Tunnel of 440 thousand 6 meters. 384, 785 meters long T7 Tunnel 70, 212 meters T9 Tunnel 487 and 4 thousand 920 meters, the longest tunnel of the line T12 Tunnel 4 thousand 651 meters.
Construction and tunnel lining of the 230-meter T5 Tunnel have been completed, while cable duct manufacturing continues.
In addition, in T2 Tunnel, mold preparation for tunnel lining and in-tunnel base arch coating concrete and beam production in B6 class sections in T3 Tunnel started. In the T7 Tunnel, reinforced concrete beams are manufactured for formwork preparation for tunnel lining.
During the excavation and slope support works between T3 and T4 tunnels, 22 120 centimeter diameter 14,20 bore piles were piled for the power line stability, head beam concrete and 200 meter long trench was poured.
6 bin 675 meter piles piled for viaducts
In the scope of the project, the bored pile work on the VK-3 16-17-18-10 axles continues at full speed. Grobeton was poured on 1 and 2 axles and production of reinforcement was started. Total 6 bin 675 meters piled in piles.
The "soil mix" application of the VK-1 viaduct was completed between the 1-6 axes. In addition, 676 thousand 6 meters of soil mix was applied at 84 points.
