Turkey opens record-breaking bridge between Europe and Asia
Показать описание
Turkey's 1915 Canakkale Bridge, the longest midspan suspension bridge that spans the Dardanelles Strait and connects Europe and Asia at the western end of the Marmara Sea, was inaugurated on Friday in Turkey's northwestern province of Canakkale.
The 1915 Canakkale Bridge was built by Turkish and South Korean firms with an investment of €2.5 billion ($2.8 billion).
China's Sichuan Road and Bridge Construction Group also took part in the bridge's construction after winning the steel box girder hoisting project bid.
The bridge connects the town of Gelibolu (Gallipoli), located on the European side of the northwestern province of Canakkale, with the town of Lapseki on the Asian side.
The overpass allows travellers to cross the Dardanelles, which connects the Aegean Sea with the Sea of Marmara, in just six minutes compared to the previous one-and-a-half hours by ferry.
After Istanbul's three bridges over the Bosphorus Strait, the 1915 Canakkale Bridge is Turkey's fourth bridge connecting Europe and Asia, and the first to cross the Dardanelles.
The bridge's architecture is awash with symbolism.
Its central span of 2,023 metres (6,637 feet) is in recognition of the year 2023 when Turkey celebrates the centenary of the founding of the Turkish Republic following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire.
The height of the bridge's towers is 318 metres (1,043 feet), a nod to March 18 (or 3/18) when Turkey commemorates soldiers killed during the Gallipoli sea and land battles.
