The Bicycle Performance Park is Almost Ready

Bornova Municipality is nearing completion of the Bicycle Performance Park it is constructing on an 11-decare area in Yeşilova Neighborhood. Mayor Ömer Eşki stated that the project will be one of the most beautiful parks in İzmir and emphasized that it will add value to the area for many years to come.

Bornova Municipality continues to add new thematic spaces to the district. Following projects like Abide-i Hürriyet Square and the TRNC Park, the Bicycle Performance Park on 4088 Street in Yeşilova is now nearing its final phase. The ramps have been completed, and the asphalting stage has begun in the 11-decare area.

Mayor Eşki: "One of the most special projects of this period"

Inspecting the ongoing work on site, Bornova Mayor Ömer Eşki highlighted the project’s value for both sports and social life. He said:
“This area is more than 11 decares. We are building one of the most beautiful parks in İzmir right here. It will be a bicycle performance park—a pump track. I truly believe this will be one of the most outstanding projects of this period. It will add tremendous value to its surroundings and have a long-lasting impact. Very soon, we’ll be introducing this park to Bornova and all of İzmir.”

A new space for youth, sport, and socializing

The park is expected to become a hub for adrenaline-loving youth. It will also play an important role in promoting sports and supporting healthy lifestyle habits. With its modern design and safe track features, it’s set to become one of Bornova’s new favorite spots.

What is a Pump Track?

A pump track is a circular course specially designed with humps, curves, and ramps, suitable for use with bicycles, skateboards, and scooters. Users gain speed not by pedaling, but by using their body movements to "pump" through the track. These parks are both fun and great for physical development and have gained popularity among young people in recent years.
