Ordu is undertaking a major project that will not only find a radical solution to the traffic and parking problems in the city center, but will also provide the region with a brand new green area. The former 420 Eylül Stadium area, which was previously designed as a 19-car parking lot, was transformed into a new area with the visionary initiatives of Ordu Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Dr. Mehmet Hilmi Güler. It is transformed into a modern two-storey car park with a capacity of 2 thousand vehicles and a lush green National Garden on top. With the start of construction work, the face of Ordu is set to change.
Scope and Importance of the Project
This transformation project set out with the aim of improving the quality of urban life in Ordu. The main goal of the project is to provide a permanent solution to the problem of heavy traffic and insufficient parking in the city center, while also creating a large green area where city residents can breathe and host social and cultural events.
The National Garden and parking lot construction area, which Mayor Güler personally inspected, reveals the size and potential of the project. With the completion of the project, the need for parking will be largely met and a modern living space will be created in the city center.
Capacity Increase and Traffic Relief
Initially designed as a parking lot for only 420 vehicles, the transformation of this area into a giant parking lot for 2 vehicles thanks to the determined attitude and vision of Mayor Güler is a critical step in Ordu’s future parking and traffic management strategies. This capacity increase will significantly alleviate the parking shortage experienced especially on weekends and during special events. This parking lot, which will be located right in the city center, will provide great convenience to vehicle owners and will also make traffic flow more orderly.
In his statement on the subject, Mayor Güler clearly emphasized the benefits the project will provide to the city by saying, “This parking lot, which will be located right in the center of our city, will reduce the traffic load and give Ordu a sigh of relief.”
National Garden: A Social and Green Living Area
The National Garden, which will be located on the parking lot, will add a new dimension to Ordu's social life. This green area aims to be the new meeting point of the city with various social facilities that it will host, beyond being just a park. The National Garden, which will be enriched with social facilities such as green areas, walking paths, rest areas, children's playgrounds and perhaps small cafes, will be a place where Ordu residents of all ages can have a pleasant time.
The concept of the National Garden is a model that has been implemented in many cities in Türkiye and has been greatly appreciated. This model aims to increase the decreasing green areas in city centers, provide citizens with opportunities to rest in nature and strengthen social interaction. This new National Garden in Ordu will achieve the same goals and increase the aesthetic and functional value of the city.
An Exemplary Living Space for the Army
As stated by Mayor Güler, with this important investment, Ordu is not only gaining a new social living space, but also a parking lot that will fundamentally solve the parking problem. With the completion of the project, Ordu is expected to become a more organized, greener and more livable city. This comprehensive project stands out as an important step that will guide the future development of Ordu and directly affect the quality of life of the city's residents. The fact that the project started with the wishes of "Congratulations" reflects the excitement and expectations of the local people for this important investment.
