Tenders for construction of connecting roads for Istanbul's third bridge over the Bosporus have been postponed for the fourth time.
A tender for the Kurtkoy-Akyazi motorway tender will be held on March 1 next year with that for the Kinali-Odayeri road will be held a week later, the Dünya Gazetesi newspaper reported.
The tenders will be held as part of the 260km North Marmara Motorway project that includes the soon to be completed Yavus Sultan Selim Bridge.
Completion of the connecting roads is planned for the end of 2018.
The tender for the North Marmara Motorway was originally set for 6th March 2015 but was then pushed back to the May 6, World Highways reported in July. It was then announced that the tender would be run in two stages, with the Kinali-Odayeri motorway tender on July 7 and the Kurtkoy-Akyazi motorway on June 30.
