The signaling system that cost 30 million within the scope of the “Transportation Master Plan” made during the Yaşar Bahçeci period in Kırşehir turned the city into a traffic light field. With the “Transportation Master Plan” that was put into practice in the past years in Kırşehir with a population of 150 thousand, serious changes were made in the superstructure, parking system and public transportation. After the infrastructure works that the citizens complained about for a long time, the superstructure works were given to Özbek İnşaat through a controversial bargaining method and the parking system was changed and made suitable for “EDS”. The project also entered a new era in public transportation. In addition, traffic lights were placed at many points in the city other than the intersections. The new signaling system was made by Türk Telekom for approximately 30 million TL.
Some citizens stated that the traffic light is unnecessary in a small city like Kırşehir, while some state that this situation makes the traffic even more dysfunctional and the traffic is unnecessarily waiting in the city. told an incident that had happened before; Trafik The traffic light in front of the cultural center for pedestrians was lit red for vehicles. However, there was a pedestrian, neither passing nor waiting.I also knew that the pedestrian is not expected in the light of pedestrian, and I passed without waiting. The traffic police from behind stopped me and got up to do the procedure. They turned Kırşehir into a field of light so that we could spend it and make a Transportation Master Plan. ”
Especially in small cities like Kırşehir, no signaling is used.
In Turkey, the place where there are no traffic lights is Sinop… In the city center of Sinop, the traffic signal lights were removed by the Provincial Traffic Commission 21 years ago on the grounds that they were causing disruptions in transportation. Thus, in Sinop, the accident rates have decreased to almost zero levels as vehicle drivers give priority to each other and pedestrians when passing.
