Elastic bearing of the Ankara – Sivas high-speed line
Increased route availability for the ‘Middle Corridor’
The ‘Middle Corridor’ along the New Silk Road connects Türkiye with Georgia and Azerbaijan. Between the capital Ankara and the city of Sivas in the Central Anatolia region, the Turkish railway company TCDD has built a new, double-track high-speed line for passenger and freight services as part of this corridor.
The challenge
- Very high number of transitions into tunnels and onto a bridges
- Speeds of up to 250 km/h
- High requirement for track availability
The Getzner solution
Around 350,000 m2 of under ballast mats and about 150,000 under sleeper pads were used to protect the superstructure. Mass-spring systems provide optimum vibration protection on 20,000 m2 of slab track.


Advantages for customers
- Lower maintenance costs thanks to reduced wear
- Increased safety and availability by protection of the superstructure
- Higher acceptance due to efficient vibration protection
The elasticity of the Getzner products brought the stiffness of the tracks to the desired level. Our goal is to significantly reduce maintenance costs.
