New bridge linking Greece and Turkey to be built this year
The construction of a new bridge between Turkey and Greece near the Maritsa River marks a significant development in bolstering connectivity and streamlining transportation between the two neighboring nations. The existing bridge proved to be insufficient to meet the growing demand for passage.
According to Anadolu Agency (AA), the bridge to be built over the river would link the two neighboring countries between the Ipsala border gate in Turkey and the Kipi border gate in Greece. https://greekherald.com.au/news/new-bridge-linking-greece-and-turkey-to-be-built-this-year/
