New Bridge Connects Asia and Europe - both ends in Turkey
2016-08-26
The Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge will be inaugurated with the participation of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Prime Minister Binali Yildirim and foreign guests on Friday.

The bridge, which cost $3 billion, has a total of 10 lanes - eight highway lines and two rail lines running in both directions, and has 322-meter-high bridge towers. The bridge, which is 1,408 meters over the Bosporus, will be the longest suspension bridge in the world with a rail system.
