Tram coming to Izmir

Construction of the 13 kilometer line, including the M. Kemal Sahil Boulevard, will be started soon to reduce traffic density.

Work will be carried out for the two-way tram line at Mustafa Kemal Sahil Boulevard, which will be the solution to the mass transportation that will be the biggest problem of İzmir and to ease the traffic. Starting from Alsancak Railway Station, it is envisaged to serve on the line planned to be terminated at Üçkuyular Market. The tram, which will depart from Alsancak Gar, will follow Atatürk Avenue and follow Cumhuriyet Boulevard in front of Konak Pier. The tram line which will pass to Mustafa Kemal Sahil Boulevard is followed by Ş.B. Ali Official Tufan Street in parallel, will end in Üçkuyular Pazar Yeri.

Following the approval by DLH for the Üçkuyular Halkapınar line, which was prepared by İzmir Metropolitan Municipality and submitted to the General Directorate of Railways Ports and Airports Construction in September 2010, permission came from the Protection Board. After the approval of the Board, the project was sent to SPO.

What about the mansions?

Zeki Yildirim, the head of the Izmir Branch of the Chamber of City Planners, said that the Metropolitan Municipality supported the activities of the public transport but there was no information sharing with the public about the tram and the relevant rooms. President Yıldırım added that such issues concerning all segments of society should be explained in detail, adding, ğ A minimum width of 10 meters is required for rail systems; what will happen if the car passes through the parking lot. Some people say the underground parking is done, but it is not possible because the water is below the rate. This cannot be done without giving place to vehicle owners. In addition, there are rights acquired in places such as Governor's Mansion, Pasha Mansion. Considering these, the project must be revised. Alınarak

Zeki Yildirim, who stated that the coastal zone in the coastal area of ​​Izmir was discussed in the meeting on the issue of arranging and arranging the coastal zone as part of the 5 section, said ğ In that meeting, the tram never came up.

Rays integrated

The tram that will run on Fahrettin Altay - Alsancak - Halkapınar Line will be integrated with Konak Metro and Halkapınar Light Rail System (İZBAN). In this way, the passengers who take the tram from Üçkuyular can go to Bornova by metro or from Halkapınar to Aliağa or Menderes without taking a bus. Apart from this line, Buca Line and Narlıdere-Urla line are also among the projects of the municipality.

We asked the situation of the parking lot, especially the tram line, the officials said that the project was discussed and said, ord The route will be between Üçkuyular and Halkapınar. But it is unclear at which points the line will pass through Konak. After this, the tender will be prepared with the technical specifications to be prepared. 2 can be implemented in the year after the tender is completed and the works are started. Within the scope of the project, a total of 19 stops are on the agenda. N Again, the same sources, all parks in the Mustafa Kemal Coast Boulevard is not in question, the work to be done consists of a simple rail floor and stall system, for this, a single-stranded area is enough for them, other parts will not be touched, he said.
