International Intertraffic Istanbul Fair

While the annual cost of traffic accidents to Turkey is 20 billion lira, this figure is around 9 billion euros in all European Union countries.

International Intertraffic Istanbul Fair will be held between 27-29 May 2015 at Istanbul Expo Center.

The statement made for the exhibition, the International Exhibition of Intertraffic Istanbul, Istanbul Exhibition Center between 27-29 May in Europe, the Middle East and Turkey is prepared to bring the urban management it said.

Intertraffic Istanbul Fair, where the latest technologies for international infrastructure, traffic management, road safety, parking systems and creating smart roads will be displayed, will host over 79 thousand visitors from 6 countries this year. New technological control projects to reduce traffic accidents by 2015 percent will also be discussed. "Urban Transformation and Its Impact on Transportation" are among the topics to be discussed in the symposium at the fair, which has placed the subjects of "Transportation" and "Parking Lot Management" in the focus this year.

Electronic Camera Systems as a rapidly growing market in Turkey (TEDES) for the procurement of new investments and the reported statement will be discussed at Intertraffic Istanbul was recorded as follows:
"Transportation and Vehicle Parking Management Symposium will be organized under the sponsorship of ISPARK in the fair, where various activities are organized with the support of the Ministry of Transport, General Directorate of Highways, Municipalities, General Directorate of IETT, General Directorate of Security and wide participation of the private sector."

- "Traffic congestion costs 6 billion lira annually to Istanbul"

Intertraffic Istanbul Fair Consultant Prof. Dr. Mustafa Ilıcalı said in a statement, Turkey's largest city Istanbul, especially in the costs of the traffic jam is very high, he said.

Considering the European Union countries, the fact that public transportation is very developed in metropolises almost eliminates the traffic congestion, Ilıcalı said, “For example, traffic congestion costs reaching 6 billion TL per year in Istanbul, 390 million Euros in Berlin, 900 million pounds in London, 1,4 billion Euros in Paris and 2,5 billion Euros in Barcelona ”.

Traffic accidents found that the annual cost of 20 billion pounds of Turkey, while in all European Union countries that transfer Ilıcalı 9 billion euros this figure, said:
“Excessive speed is the biggest cause of driver-induced death / injury traffic accidents with a share of 43 percent. It is aimed to reduce accidents by warning drivers when they approach black spots of accidents, in severe weather conditions, and when exceeding the speed limit. With this study called Interactive Warning System (IUS), a 50% reduction in accidents caused by excessive speed is aimed. The mortal place in Turkey / injury traffic accidents last 5 years, 45 percent showed an increase of 10 percent in the last 110 years. The rate of the population being affected by traffic accidents with death / injury has reached 10 percent in the last 163 years. Excessive speed constitutes 1 million 282 thousand 745 TL of the traffic fines applied. "

The last 10 years the number of accidents when 28 EU countries taken as a base of 1 million 77 thousand stated that the late registration Ilıcalı, said that this figure reached 1 million 297 thousand in Turkey.

- "Istanbulites spend 125 hours a year only in evening traffic"

Ilıcalı reminded that according to the research conducted by Bahçeşehir University Transportation Engineering in 2014, Istanbul residents see "Transport and Traffic" as the biggest problem of the city, "According to the survey results with the participation of 10 thousand people, the cost of living, lack of green space, security problems, planning problems. "Transportation and Traffic" problem, which took the first place by leaving behind many important problems such as such, remains important in the eyes of Istanbulites despite all the investments that are being made and will be made in our country ”.

Ilıcalı made the following reviews:

“Istanbul is above the world average. Solutions for traffic engineering, in new technologies and cities that have passed the advanced urban planning application to see the results of this study, Intertraffic in terms of assessing Istanbul was now not only Turkey but in Europe and the Middle East as a meeting point. In particular, European and Far East countries, to introduce new technology to Turkey Intertraffic Istanbul within the scope of the coming exhibition, the Middle East countries, Russia, Turkish Republics also recognize the Intelligent Urban Traffic and Road management technology implemented in Turkey and comes to buy.
