New residences built with urban transformation in Kütahya Pazarlar were delivered to their owners

The Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change continues its urban transformation works all over Turkey.

With the work carried out in risky and reserve building areas by the Urban Transformation Directorate affiliated to the Ministry, new living spaces with safe, durable and social facilities are being built instead of earthquake-resistant structures.

Since 2012, 2 million 761 thousand independent sections throughout Türkiye have been transformed, and the transformation of 2 million 378 thousand independent sections has been completed.

The transformation of 383 thousand independent sections continues.

The transformation of 1,489 independent sections in Kütahya was completed.

In this context, 245 residences and 58 workplaces located in risky and reserve building areas in the Hoca Ahmet Yesevi District of Pazarlar district were rebuilt.

Sharing images from Yesevi District, where citizens started to move into their homes, Minister of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change Murat Kurum said, "We asked Aunt Halime and brother Ramazan in Kütahya: Do you like your new house? Their answer summarizes everything. An urban transformation project could not have been explained better."

Halime Bektaş, who is in the footage, said, "I don't know El's house, I know my own house, my house is very beautiful. I have beautiful rooms. God granted it, we saw it, we stopped. The chief has his hand. My destiny is in this row."

Ramazan Bektaş explained the transformation in the region by saying, "It used to be a place like this, like a gulf. Is it possible? You can't get enough of looking at it. It makes the happiest of happiness."

Explaining that an exemplary transformation was carried out in the neighborhood with the support of the state, Ali Türkmen said: "We have seen the mud and soil of this neighborhood for 43 years. When I was a child, our neighborhoods were mud. There were collapsed and ruined houses. So if we tried to clean this place, neither the municipality nor any individual could have the power. But our state had the power. He offered it to us. Our Minister Murat Kurum came here and saw the neighborhood for himself. I witnessed it all, step by step. We were hopeful, "We were excited, but I never even dreamed of such a place. May God bless you a thousand times," he said.

Hatice Türkmen stated that they got rid of the fear of earthquakes thanks to solid houses and said, "We always felt that our state was with us in terms of the safety of life and property. When I entered this house, I felt at peace. I really felt our state with me as a citizen. Thanks to our President, we overcame the fear of earthquakes the most."

Tuğba Akdoğmuş, mother of 4 children, said, "Our baby Hakkı was born here. It is the first baby of the urban transformation. We had a beautiful, happy and peaceful home with our baby. This house is enough for us with my 4 children and my wife."
