Beginning of Beam Assembly on Kurucesme Tram Line
Beam Installation Begins on Kuruçeşme Tram Line

The assembly of the steel beams of the 332-meter-long bridge that will provide the crossing on the tram line that will extend to Kuruçeşme by Kocaeli Metropolitan Municipality will begin soon. The installation of seismic isolators, which will absorb the load of the tram and steel beams, will be completed in a short time, just below the head beams manufactured as reinforced concrete.

A thousand 500 tons of steel will be used

The teams of the Department of Science Affairs completed the construction of 332 of the 9 pillars that will carry the 8-meter bridge within the scope of the project. Finally, the head beam is made for one foot. The installation of the seismic isolators, whose tests have been completed within the scope of the work, will be completed soon. A total of 18 tons of steel will be used in the project, where 150 steel beams with a total length of 500 meters will be placed on the feet. As part of the project works, ground improvements were completed at the ups and downs of the bridge approaches, and reinforced concrete productions started after the foundation excavation of the transformer structure.

2 NEW PEDESTRIAN OVERPASSES

Within the scope of the project, two new pedestrian overpasses built in front of the private hospital and Izmit High School at the entrance of Kuruçeşme were completed and put into service. The pedestrian overpass built in front of the private hospital is 59 meters long, and the pedestrian overpass built in front of the Izmit High School is 52 meters long.
