Konya Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Uğur İbrahim Altay examined the bridge work that will connect the first stage of Abdülhamid Han Street, which has a length of 14,5 kilometers, to the second stage, which will connect Beyşehir Ring Road and Beyhekim Street.

Stating that they are making a great effort to develop Konya in every aspect, Mayor Altay emphasized that one of their important priorities is the traffic of Konya. Stating that they are carrying out serious studies to solve the traffic problem, Mayor Altay said, “Currently, we are at the intersection of the first and second stages of Abdülhamit Han Street. We had already completed the first phase and put it into service. The second phase has actually been completed. We are building a bridge that will connect the two. With this 122-meter-long bridge, we will have connected the first stage and the second stage. In addition, the problem of the discharge of the water in the Keçili Canal will be solved here without any flood risk. Thus, we will provide an uninterrupted transportation service starting from Beyhekim Street to Sille Road. In the third phase, we plan to complete our work in an area from Sille Road to Meram Medical Faculty by the end of this year. Thus, we will provide uninterrupted transportation to Meram Medical Faculty Hospital, Beyhekim Hospital, Seljuk Medical Faculty and stadium. Thus, we gain an important main artery between Meram and Seljuks.”

Noting that Abdülhamit Han Street, with a total length of 14,5 kilometers, will have an important place in urban traffic, Mayor Altay said, “We are planning to reduce the traffic density, especially on Beyşehir Road and Istanbul Road. Hopefully, by the end of the year, this street will be opened and put into service. However, we continue our efforts to open a new street in Konya without interruption. I would like to thank our contractor, engineer and worker brother who contributed. We aim to provide our citizens with a faster and more comfortable transportation while going from one place to another. In addition, Abdülhamithan Avenue will be one of the most prestigious and longest new streets in Konya with its three lanes of departure, three lanes of arrival and median. Good luck to our city." he said.
