Bay Crossing Bridge opens in May

Bay Crossing Bridge opens in May: The Izmit Bay Suspension Bridge, which is planned to open in May, is very little left to join the two sides.

At the Izmit Bay Suspension Bridge, there is very little left for the two sides to join. It was reported that the assembly of the decks will be completed in the coming days, while the union between the two pillars of the bridge is very little.

With the good weather conditions, the works gained speed on the Izmit Bay Suspension Bridge, which constitutes the most important part of the 433-kilometer Gebze-Orhangazi-Izmir Motorway Project. In order to ensure the balance between the two legs of the bridge, decks are installed from the middle span to the bridge piers, while decks are placed between the viaducts and the bridge piers.

The 2 bin 682 meter-long bridge between Dilovası and Hersek Cape is the world's largest mid-span suspension bridge with a thousand 550 meters mid-span, while the installation of the decks will be completed in the coming days. Authorities, after the installation of the works asphalt pavement after the installation of the bridge by the end of the bridge in May, said they plan to open.
