As an international graduate student at Anadolu Üniversitesi, I'm living in the city for almost two years and half now. The city is literally a Western European city in the middle of Anatoli thanks to the visionary administration of Prof.Dr. Yılmaz Büyükerşen hoca. Thanks for everything hocam.
I am very glad that the city is improved so much in 20 years. Now that the mayor is re-elected, again, I am expecting from him to make the all neighborhoods in the city center pedestrian and biker friendly and greener.
great video WRI! you introduced me to a place I'd never heard of.I really want to visit and spend some time in Eskişehir now. Looks so pretty, clean and functional. A true lesson in that cities can change when their is political will and motivation
I don't know how that Eskişehir was in past but, these "visible" projects covers really few sections, near porsuk and univercity areas. I think Eskişehir municipality have good set-up for good advertising. Rest of city is in really bad situation. Oppositions really good at setups, people know how they screwed in big cities like Istanbul in past. Good city forming is not only a few statues, parks and pedestrian zones. Buyukersen's traffic master plan only includes bike roads, park restriction on major roads and more railways. There's no new major roads, bridged crossroads or car parking places. Not even fix potholes and bad roads. Im not talking about even fresh water sources or drinkable residentral waters which piped to homes. Cat5 high-bandwith internet available at few regions, today people talking about Cat 6 connectivity. I have cat3 speed on my resident. City center have too much narrow streets, residents cant park their own cars front of their home, even same street. Drunk drivers causing hit'n'runs for cars. Other cities like Kayseri, Konya, Istanbul and even Hatay have better projects and application. Eskişehir listed at 19th place on "Turkey Metropol Brand power and value". External forces trying to polish opposition municipality, they got istanbul at last elections too, we will see how they success that. Local people know everything.
