| description | Mersin, which is located in the Adana subregion of the mediterranean region, is one of the big cities in Turkey and the region in the sense of population and economical aspects. The city of Mersin was built on the southwest corner of Çukurova where Delicay and Müftü creeks create narrow coastal floodplain, and where the state roads coming from Eastern Anatolia, Southeastern Anatolia and Interior Anatolia are intersect on the mediterranean coast. Mersin and Çukurova plains have rich potential for agricultural practices with fertile alluvial soils and suitable climate. This agricultural potential was attracted people to the area, and eventually was caused rapid growing of industry and trade in Mersin. These developments are resulted rapid spatial expansion of the city.However, the desire for cheaper infrastructure and superstructure lead to cause expansion of the city over fertile agricultural lands along the Adana-Mersin-Antalya road. These unplanned structures, along both sides of the Adana-Mersin-Antalya road, have been causing unplanned urbanization consequently affecting agricultural areas negatively.For protection of fertile agricultural areas and suitable urbanisation, expansion of the city has to be directed toward north where has steeper slope with less fertile soils. To achive this goal, new suitable zoning and construction plans must be prepared and implemented immediately |
