Mersin-Adana-Osmaniye-Gaziantep (MAOG) High-Standard Railway Line Geotechnical Projects

Mersin-Adana-Osmaniye-Gaziantep (MAOG) High-Standard Railway Line Geotechnical Projects

The Mersin-Adana-Osmaniye-Gaziantep (MAOG) High-Standard Railway Line spans a total length of 286 kilometers and is divided into five lots based on different scopes. Starting from Mersin Province, the project passes through Tarsus, Adana city center, Ceyhan, Osmaniye city center, Düziçi, Bahçe, Nurdağı, and ends in Gaziantep, providing seamless transportation between Mersin and Gaziantep.

Mersin-Adana Section:

•Begins at Mersin Station, follows the existing railway route, and ends at Adana Station.

Key structures along the Mersin-Adana section include:

•10 station crossings

•22 bridges

•11 overpasses

•14 underpasses

•48 culverts

•88 retaining walls of varying left/right lengths.

Adana-Ceyhan Section:

•Starts at Adana Station, follows the existing railway route, and ends at Km: 417+997.457.

Key structures along the Adana-Ceyhan section include:

•4 station crossings

•2 viaducts

•2 bridges

•2 railway bridges

•11 overpasses

•12 underpasses

•26 retaining walls of varying left/right lengths.

Geotechnical Design and Ground Improvement:

Ground improvement designs were prepared and implemented in specific sections of the route to address stability and soil conditions. The geotechnical studies facilitated the construction and rehabilitation of critical infrastructure components, ensuring the route’s efficiency and safety.
