Turkey launches major road upgrades and traffic re‑routing projects
In Aydın’s İncirliova district, a 350 million TL hot‑asphalt renewal on the main arterial road has been completed, with plans to add smart decorative lighting and landscaping in the next stage.
The same municipality has also re‑directed traffic flow on 427 Street and Eski Buz Fabrikası Street, installing new signage to improve safety and streamline entry to the provincial highway.
In Bursa’s Osmangazi district, a large‑scale resurfacing scheme will apply roughly 14 000 tons of asphalt, 14 600 tons of patching material and 17 800 tons of robot‑applied asphalt, along with binder layers and upgraded drainage, following a competitive electronic tender.
Efeler’s municipal works have begun demolition of worn road bases in the Orta and Cuma neighbourhoods, preparing for hot‑asphalt resurfacing that aims to provide safer, smoother travel for local residents.
The General Directorate of Highways issued a nationwide bulletin detailing ongoing construction, maintenance and repair on multiple highways—including lane closures on the İzmir‑Aydın and TEM motorways, temporary shutdowns on the Mersin‑Çeşmeli route, and single‑lane traffic through 20 tunnels on the Artvin‑Erzurum road—requiring drivers to follow temporary signs and reduced speed limits.
