Edirne Istanbul Railway and Trains Problems Should Be Eliminated

Saadet Party Head of District District Şaban Kaya stated that transportation in our country, whether urban or intercity, will increase with each passing day, “While in the developed countries, intercity transportation is generally done by train and plane, we still count in this regard. The number of good news about the high speed train was given. At least, measures should be taken urgently for the efficient use of the existing train line until the high speed train is built. ”

Addressing the issue of train running between Edirne and Istanbul, Şaban Kaya said, tren The train running on this line departs from Kapıkule at 07.30 in the morning. 11: Istanbul at 30. Halkalı Station, Evening at 18.00 Halkalıand arrives in Edirne in the waters of 22.00. So, once a day, there is a round trip. There hasn't been any progress on this line for many years. ”

Şaban Kaya listed the public's expectations in this regard as follows: “The number of trips should be increased. Considering the number of passengers standing, the number of wagons should be increased. Speed ​​should be gained according to the conditions of the day. When railways maintenance often coincides with the transit times of the train, there is a delay of at least 1 hour. Maintenance should be planned so as not to cause delay. Providing transportation within the city, ETUS should arrange the flights according to the arrival and departure times of the train. Can be bought online and in advance (a daily ticket can be purchased in the current application) ”

Şaban Kaya emphasized that the city stop next to the 25 Kasım stadium in Edirne is almost hidden. “There is not even a sign / sign indicating that this is a stop! There is a warning sign just around the stop - dangerous and forbidden to walk around the CDD area. It's like 'don't get in here'! So, where and how will the passengers get on the train? In addition, there is no possibility to sit while waiting at the stop and be protected from weather conditions. The stop is not a safe area at night. There is no security..

“Railway is more economical, faster and safer in all respects, Ş said Şaban Kaya.“ We invested in highways rather than investing in railways. In other words, we buttoned the first button wrong, as in everything else. ”
