Paşaköy - Mecidiye Section Of The Northern Marmara Motorway Part Opened

Paşaköy - Mecidiye section of Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge and Northern Marmara Motorway which was built by IC Içtaş Astaldi consortium and, operated by ICA was opened in a ceremony with the participation of Prime Minister Binali Yıldırım on Tuesday, 4th of July.
 
Paşaköy - Mecidiye access road, which will be a new solution for relieving the traffic of Istanbul, is of great importance in terms of integration of the Anatolian Motorway with the Northern Marmara Motorway.
 
Other benefits of the access road are as follows;
 
Direct connection to the Istanbul - Ankara TEM Motorway from the Kurtköy district will be possible.
 
Easy access to Sabiha Gökçen Airport will be provided. Thus, both the new airport to be opened and the other airports of the city will be connected.
 
Transit vehicles from Asia to Europe and from Europe to Asia, especially the heavy vehicle traffic, will be connected directly to the Northern Marmara Motorway from Sultanbeyli - Kurtköy location of the Anatolian Motorway. 
 
With this access road, the transit traffic separated from the Çamlık Intersection will be separated from the Mecidiye Intersection and relieve the traffic in the districts of Sultanbeyli, Çamlıca, Ataşehir and Ümraniye.
 
It is envisaged that the busy traffic on Kurtköy-Şile line will be relieved with this access road. 
 
In addition, thanks to the multi-directional intersections in Mecidiye Intersection, a comfortable separation and participation will be provided for the drivers.
