EGO General Directorate will start the ground correction work tomorrow, due to the deterioration in the rail infrastructure as a result of the use of inappropriate materials during the construction of the line, in two separate areas of the line between the Ankara Metro Batıkent-Sincan Line (M3) Istanbul Yolu Station and the Botanik Station.
During the work planned between August 10 and September 10, 2022, there will be no expeditions at Istanbul Road, Botanik, Mesa and West Central Stations. Citizens will be transported by bus transfer between Eryaman 1-2 and Batıkent Stations in order to avoid victimization during the work.
It was determined that unsuitable materials were used in the construction of the line between Istanbul Yolu Station and Botanik Station, which is the continuation of the Kızılay-Batikent Metro and completed by the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure. The situation, which was tried to be corrected with maintenance work before, became chronic.
The situation that emerged as a result of the examination and survey carried out by the EGO General Directorate was also supported by the drilling work and the reports of the academicians. Acting in line with the opinions and suggestions of the academicians, the EGO General Directorate decided to change the infrastructure of the 129-meter section of the line, which was filled incorrectly.
DURING WORK TRANSPORTATION WILL BE PROVIDED BY BUS
After the drilling work and the reports of the academicians revealed the problem on the ground, the EGO General Directorate took action upon intense complaints from the citizens, due to the speed and comfort of travel being affected after the train speed limit was reduced to 5 km/h for passenger safety.
In line with the opinions and suggestions of the academicians, the infrastructure of the 129-meter section of the line, which was filled incorrectly, will be replaced between 10 August and 10 September 2022. During the work, there will be a bus transfer between Eryaman 1-2 and Batıkent Stations so that citizens will not experience any grievances, since there will be no operation at Istanbul Road, Botanik, Mesa and Batı Central Stations.
After the completion of the works, the train operation in the region will be offered to the citizens again as safer, more comfortable and shortened travel time.
