  • Reflections of 1904'S Erzurum to Current Erzurum
    ITU A|Z • Vol 13 No 2 • July 2016 • 157-173 Reflections of 1904’s Erzurum to current Erzurum Ömer ATABEYOĞLU [email protected] • Department of Landscape Architecture, Faculty of Agriculture, Ordu University, Ordu, Turkey Received: April 2015 • Final Acceptance: January 2016 Abstract Human activities and natural influences contribute to the heritage of a city through their richness. The relationship of a city’s historical processes and their contemporary reflections may only be assessed with the data and documents in- herited from its past periods. Erzurum City has a rich and bright historical past. Erzurum as one of the most crucial cities of the past has brought a glorious heritage from past to present. The oldest original map that serves as a source of information on the structure of the city is the one drawn by Fuat Bey in 1904 that is kept in Erzurum museum. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between the present status of Erzurum and its past through information obtained from the 1904 city plan of Erzurum. The study was initiated with a survey of the literature on the history and urban culture of Erzurum City and the evaluation of data collected from the 1904 map. Afterwards, the data provided on Fuat Bey’s Map is compared with today’s data of Erzurum. The coordinates have been taken, and the buildings and structures mentioned on the map which have survived until today have been photographed. Furthermore, their present situations, their usage and their functions in urban structure of Erzurum have been revealed.

Entities: Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Ministry of Foreign Affairs Start Date: 11 December 2008 End Date: 11 June 2011 Extension: 30 December 2011 Disbursements: First Disbursement: 11 December 2008 USD 1,657,460 Second Disbursement: 21 April 2010 USD 2,122,527 In Brief: The joint program will mobilize the culture sector in Turkey’s least developed region – east Anatolia. The result will be increased incomes and enhanced understanding of “shared” culture between the people of eastern Anatolia and of neighbouring countries and among people of different faiths. This will be achieved by building capacities of managers of cultural assets, local authorities and civil society in eastern Anatolia to protect heritage while also benefiting from it in sustainable tourism practices through provision of tourism business development services at various sectors. At the end of the program, local authorities and civil society will be able to identify and manage shared culture assets in line with international norms and respecting the values attributed to these assets by people in other countries, from other background or of different faiths than their own. Similarly, an increased understanding of shared culture will be achieved at the national level. Outcomes: Pro-poor sectoral (tourism) development policies implemented with framework of social (cohesion) integration policies by recognizing pluralism, dialogue of cultures and the establishment of a culture of peace in Easter Anatolia and with peoples of neighboring countries by 2010.

  • Stadler Sells Gauge Changing Facility for the City of Akhalkalaki in Georgia
    Media release HOLD-BACK PERIOD 6 June 2018 DOCUMENT 2 pages ENCLOSURES None Bussnang, 6 June 2018 Stadler sells gauge changing facility for the city of Akhalkalaki in Georgia Stadler today signed a contract in Bussnang with the Georgian company Marabda-Kartsakhi-Railway LCC for the delivery of a gauge changing facility. The system will be installed in the Georgian city of Akhalkalaki near the border with Turkey and will form part of the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars Railway, which links the countries of Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey. Special tracks need to be fitted over a distance of 30 metres to enable trains to switch from the European standard gauge to the broad gauge used in the countries of the former Soviet Union. The gauge changing facility is suitable for rail vehicles with DB AG/Rafil Type V wheelsets produced by Bochumer Verein Verkehrstechnik GmbH in Ilsenburg. This technology was authorised by the German Federal Railway Authority (EBA) in 2006. In 2014 Stadler received an order for the delivery of 30 sleeper and dining cars from Azerbaijan national railways (ADY). These cars are intended for use on the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars-Istanbul route and are therefore equipped with DB AG/Rafil Type V wheelsets. Installing this gauge changing facility is the only way to allow completion of the journey from Baku to Istanbul without interruption. Regular services are scheduled to start in the summer of 2019.
