Announcing the new term projects for convenient and comfortable transportation in Bursa, Bursa Metropolitan Municipality Mayor and People's Alliance Bursa Metropolitan Municipality Mayor candidate Alinur Aktaş said that the city has a single main transportation axis divided into two branches in the direction of Mudanya and Izmir, starting from Kestel on the east-west line and bifurcating at Acemlar. He reminded that they will create two alternative corridors, 'North and South'.
Stating that they have also prepared bridge, intersection and connection road projects for the road in question to operate at maximum efficiency, Mayor Aktaş said, “We are solving the nodes in transportation one by one. The first is the connection road and intersection arrangements between Mudanya Road and City Hospital. We are creating a new alternative route from Mudanya road to the City Hospital and from there to Özlüce, with intersection arms that will allow vehicles coming from Mudanya and Bursa directions to enter and exit the City Hospital without interruption. The second one is Bademli Boulevard. We are expanding the section from Bademli junction to Bademli old village as a divided road and turning it into a boulevard. Third, Gateway bridge expansion. With the project we have initiated, we are eliminating the bottleneck on the Mudanya road by building an additional bridge next to the historical bridge. Fourthly, two intersections on Ata Boulevard: 23 Nisan intersection and Gümrük intersection. "In order to make the traffic flow on Ata Boulevard faster and safer, we are turning the intersections, one in front of Customs and the other at the entrance of 23 Nisan District/OSB, into underground crossing intersections," he said.
TWO BRIDGE INTERCHANGE ON ORHANELİ ROAD
Explaining that the fifth of the bridge, intersection and connection road projects that will solve the nodes in transportation one by one will be the Görükle bridge intersection, Mayor Aktaş said, “We are building a brand new, modern and high-capacity intersection, instead of the intersection located at the intersection of the roads connecting to our western region and which does not handle the traffic load with its current capacity. Sixthly, İhsaniye-Yeni Karaman connection bridge. With the passage provided via Mudanya road, we provide an alternative passage between Nilüfer and Osmangazi districts. Seventhly, two junctions on Orhaneli Road, Beşevler and Odunluk. We are turning 2 signalized intersections between Beşevler-Mihraplı and Çamlıca-Odunluk into different level bridge intersections. Eighth, Botanical Park junction. We are connecting Çelebi Mehmet Boulevard with Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Boulevard by easing the traffic load with the clover intersection we will build on the nearby ring road. "In addition, we will have works that will ease traffic for the city, such as Acemler-Soğukkuyu-Mudanya Road 'Acemler Service Road', Zübeyde Hanım Street-Hayran Street connection road and Mihraplı region bridge and road arrangements," he said.
