Background: This six lane 3.3km suspension bridge spans the Gulf of Izmit. After the completion of the bridge, the distance between Istanbul and İzmir shortened by about 140 km (87mi), bypassing the lengthy distance around the Gulf of İzmit. It carries more than 40,000 vehicles a day, reducing travel time by six hours.
The design was demanding given it is built in one of the most earthquake risk areas of the world.
