BURSA - Yüzüncü Yıl Atatürk Stadı (43,361)

Luke80 · Oct 2, 2009

Really like the overall look of the stadium but the design seems a bit limiting. Love the shape of the roof as a piece of architecture but not if they want to expand the other side. The single upper tier looks a bit like an afterthought as it is.

Yes, an expansion would be very expensive.
Actually Bursa is a big city and Bursa SK has got many fans (not like many other small turkish clubs).
Current stadium has got an capacity of 19,700 and they average was 18k when they played in the 2nd Div.

The pre-design
As you can see the bowl is completely new

Great project, it is original and has a look of high quality about it hopefully the finishing touches are better then they were in Kayseri which like this project had a great design but was built with costs in mind and corners we're cut. When could we see this get built?

Carrerra · Oct 3, 2009

I feel like 35K is a bit low for the club considering their fan base. 48K would be appropriate. Anyway I hope them to get into work as soon as possible.

Currently city, sports ministry and club are talking. Who needs what? What do you think. What do you prefer etc.

BTW construction will be like at Spurts stadiums. Stadium will be built at the north of the old one.

I don't think that the quality will be very high. Maybe a lil bit better than Kayseri

First tier looks very steep!
The interior is unique, haven't seen a similar layout before.
The 2nd tier of the main stand could be slightly bigger, otherwise I really like it.

www.sercan.de Discussion starter · Oct 26, 2009

Yes, 1st tier is very steep.
Don't know why, but looks like Turks love steep stands :)

(estimated
Sükrü Saracoglu
1: ~25°
2: ~34-36°)

Türk Telekom Arena:
1: 24°
2: 35°

Kadir Has:
1: 30°
2: 34°

This one:
1: 28°
2: 35°

Yes, fans of Bursa are angry because of the smaller 2nd tier.
34,750 is really too small for Bursa
40-45k would have been better.
But as you can see no space.

BTW according to the architects its possible to expand to 40,000+

Genç · Nov 13, 2009

If it's possible to expand to 40k+ then why don't they just build it bigger now and forget about later developments! :D

I absolutely love this project, but it's just way too small :(

www.sercan.de Discussion starter · Nov 13, 2009

actually uefa is not happy about the locations
traffic problem and they want a 50,000m2 square / free space

looks like they will change the location of the project -> new design

Genç · Nov 13, 2009

:|

Damn. This will slow down the entire process! I hope they keep the design the same...and add about 10,000 seats :D

Major of Bursa said that they will built the croc projects

Kuvvaci · Feb 15, 2010

is he i...ot...? he can build if he wish... but we want this for euro and this country has no time to lose with that kind of stupidity.

www.sercan.de Discussion starter · Feb 15, 2010

Actually TFF is stupid
They just made a project on the paper

While the real project is going to b approved

www.sercan.de Discussion starter · Feb 16, 2010

The New Bursa Stadium is an integral part of the Culture Park located in the heart of Bursa. The existing Bursa stadium and adjacent buildings will be torn down completely to create enough space for the New Bursa Stadium to be located at the same spot.

The 30,000 seat stadium and its concourses with its cafeterias will be fully covered by a roof structure of hexagons, which will allow a smoothly filtered daylight to seep through. The hexagonal figures of historic Islamic art in the green mosque of Bursa inspired the structure of the stadium’s roof.

This stadium is not only a sporting venue – it marks a new gathering place for the locals at the heart of their city.

The stadium and the surrounding park are well connected to the public transport system through metro, tram and buses. Also, the city centre is easily accessible by foot. The whole concept for the location marks an achievement in sustainable development for the city and is certain to improve the quality of life in Bursa for all residents.

Bursa should consider 40k capacity or at least expandable to 40k in future, bcs they are a club with big fan potential. In the case that Turkey bid for a world cup in future either on its own or together with Greece, Bursa is a definite world cup city candidate. As far as i know min capacity requirement for WCup is 40k.

DardanKosovar · Feb 17, 2010

so where will bursa play when the current stadium is torn down?
btw that croc project looks more like an anaconda

www.sercan.de Discussion starter · Feb 17, 2010

looks like the 2nd tier is gone?

www.sercan.de Discussion starter · Feb 17, 2010

ok ist clear
Bursa will built the croc project

Genç · Feb 17, 2010

I prefer it to the other one...it looks like one of the tiers has been made into a single, massive tier, while the other sides still have two? Bit like Liverpool's "Kop" end...?

Maybe I'm seeing things though :D
