Kocaeli Metropolitan Municipality is implementing another important project in line with its vision of strengthening the transportation infrastructure throughout the city. The new bus stop pocket, which has been started to be constructed on the E-5 Highway in the Kirazlıyalı area of the Körfez district, aims to prevent disruptions, especially during peak traffic hours, and to increase both the safety and comfort of public transportation services. With this strategic investment, the Metropolitan Municipality aims to facilitate the daily lives of the residents of the region and to raise transportation standards.
Safe and Uninterrupted Public Transportation Opportunity on E-5
The stop pocket, which was designed to relieve the frequent traffic congestion in front of the Körfez District Gendarmerie Command, will create a safe stop-and-go area on the E-5 Highway. The traffic congestion that public transport vehicles create on the main road during the process of dropping off and picking up their passengers will be significantly reduced with this new arrangement. The implementation of the stop pocket will allow both other vehicle drivers to follow a smoother traffic flow and public transport users to get on and off their vehicles more safely. In this way, it is aimed to prevent time losses in transportation.
Transportation is Now Becoming More Practical and Safer
With the completion of the ongoing stop pocket, citizens in Kirazlıyalı and the surrounding area will be able to access public transportation much more easily. The congestion experienced especially during morning and evening commutes will become more controlled thanks to this new arrangement. The daily transportation routine for those using public transportation will become both a more practical and safer experience. Buses and minibuses that do not have to stop on the main road will be able to pick up and drop off their passengers without interrupting the traffic flow, which will increase the overall transportation efficiency.
Great Satisfaction from Citizens for the Project
The projects implemented by the Kocaeli Metropolitan Municipality to facilitate transportation throughout the city are being met with great satisfaction by the citizens. The implementation of solution-oriented projects that will positively affect the daily lives of citizens, both in the city center and in the districts, is being appreciated by the local people. This stop pocket project, which will be implemented in Kirazlıyalı Neighborhood, is also receiving positive reactions as it will increase the transportation safety of the residents of the region and provide significant convenience to their daily lives. The projects of the Metropolitan Municipality aimed at such local needs stand out as a concrete indicator of the efforts to meet the expectations of the citizens and increase the quality of life. This investment will not only ease the traffic flow, but will also contribute to a more sustainable transportation model by encouraging the use of public transportation.
