Abstract

In the developing provinces of our country, the traffic jam and the number of vehicles gradually increased over day, which is related to the population growth. This situation could be identified as the socio-economic development. However, it led to negative effects on soil-water-air. Highways are important and necessary engineering structures in the cities, which connect different cities and have an important effect on the socio-economic development and other areas. Today, because of increasing highway transport, the rapid urbanization and higher number of vehicles, heavy metal pollution of traffic become an important issue. For that reason, in these places soil pollution level is an important environmental problem, as it is difficult to remove heavy metals from the soil. Soils are close to the highways, leading to higher level of pollution due to heavy metals. This study examines previous researches on the pollution of lands, sources and distribution of pollutants which are located close to the highways.

Özet

Ülkemizde gelişmekte olan illerde nüfus artışına bağlı olarak araç sayısında ve trafikte yoğunluklar her geçen gün artmaktadır. Bu durum sosyo-ekonomik açıdan gelişme olarak değerlendirilse de çevreye (toprak-su-hava) olumsuz ekolojik etkileri olmaktadır. Otoyollar, şehirlerde yapılan önemli ve bir o kadar da gerekli mühendislik yapılarındandırlar. Özellikle şehirleri birbirine bağlayarak sosyo-ekonomik ve diğer alanlarda etkili bir konuma sahiptirler. Günümüzde artan otoyol taşımacılığı, hızlı şehirleşme ve artan araç sayısı trafikten kaynaklı ağır metal kirliliğini önemli bir konu haline getirmiştir. Toprakların ağır metaller ile yüksek oranda kirlenmeleri otoyollara yakınlıklarından kaynaklanmaktadır. Bu nedenlerle toprağa ulaşan ağır metallerin topraktan uzaklaştırılmasının zor olması nedeniyle toprak kirliliği önemli bir çevre sorunu olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışmada otoyol kenarlarında yer alan toprakların kirlilik durumu üzerine yapılan çalışmalar, kirleticilerin kaynakları ve dağılımı incelenmiştir.
