Planning safe and efficient station infrastructure for freight transportation.
The Planning and Design of the TCDD Tırmıl Freight Station is a comprehensive railway engineering project undertaken to address freight transportation requirements within the area of responsibility of the TCDD 6th Regional Directorate.
The project evaluates site data, railway tracks, loading and unloading operations, shunting movements, access roads, technical infrastructure and safety requirements through an integrated approach to develop a practical station layout and project framework.
Technical Project Scope
Integrated planning for freight station operations
Tırmıl Freight Station has been planned by evaluating railway traffic, freight handling processes, on-site circulation and technical infrastructure requirements within a unified layout model.
Station Layout Plan
Railway tracks, loading and unloading areas, service units, storage areas and vehicle circulation were planned to ensure functional integration.
Track and Turnout Geometry
Track connections, turnout areas and railway geometry were assessed in accordance with technical criteria to ensure the safe execution of train reception, dispatch and shunting movements within the station.
Loading and Shunting Areas
Operational areas were planned for receiving freight trains, uncoupling and assembling wagons, conducting loading and unloading activities, and performing on-site shunting movements.
Railway Superstructure and Technical Infrastructure
Technical requirements relating to railway superstructure, site surfacing, drainage, lighting, power supply, access roads and auxiliary facilities were addressed in accordance with the station’s operational conditions.
Safety and Operational Planning
Operational flows, controlled crossings and safety requirements were evaluated to ensure the safe movement of railway traffic, vehicles and personnel within the site.

Planning Approach
Integrating railway, logistics and site operations within a unified plan
The efficient operation of a freight station depends on the correct geometric configuration of railway tracks, the uninterrupted flow of loading processes and the safe management of different traffic movements within the site.
KTM Group addressed railway engineering and logistics operational requirements within an integrated planning approach for the Tırmıl Freight Station project. This approach supports the efficient use of site capacity and the development of technical infrastructure capable of accommodating future operational requirements.
