Its story
The 1915 Çanakkale Bridge is the first bridge to cross the Dardanelles (Çanakkale Strait), between Lapseki and Gelibolu, and opened on March 18, 2022. Its 2,023-meter main span refers to the 100th anniversary of the Republic, and its name to the naval victory of 1915. Its towers are about 318 meters tall and can be made out from kilometers away on both sides of the Strait. The bridge is a motorway link with no pedestrian access, but its view can be enjoyed from the Lapseki shore and surrounding roads.
