The Liège engineering agency Greisch will be at the source of the realisation of the world's largest bridge. The 'Yavuz Sultan Salim' will link the Bosphorus Strait to Istanbul and therefore allow for linking Europe to Asia. This unique structure will be completed in just over a year.
55,000.00 hours of calculations, is the time spent by engineers of the Liège engineering agency Greisch to study the architectural constraints of the 'Yavuz Sultan Salim' suspension bridge, which will link the Bosphorus Strait to Istanbul.
It will allow to go from Europe to Asia by foot, by bike, by car and also by train thanks to its four traffic lanes in each direction (8 vehicles wide in total), as well as its two rails and lateral cyclo-pedestrian passages. This suspension bridge should open to traffic in October 2016.
