Traffic Accident at Uncontrolled Mahmutlar Intersection Raises…
Another traffic accident occurred on Sunday, July 5, 2026, at the uncontrolled intersection in front of Kodal Çiçekçilik on Barbaros Street in Alanya' s Mahmutlar district. The incident involved two passenger cars, a Volkswagen with registration number 26 FR 260 and an Opel with registration number 07 BCZ 140, resulting in material damage but fortunately no injuries or fatalities.
This marks a recurring issue at the specific crossing, prompting concerns over traffic safety in the popular tourist area.
Mahmutlar, located east of Alanya city centre, is well-known for its coastline and attracts many Nordic tourists and foreign residents. The repeated incidents at this uncontrolled intersection highlight a significant risk, particularly for those unfamiliar with local driving conditions and traffic patterns. Local reports indicate this is not an isolated event but part of a problematic pattern at this traffic spot.
Authorities and road users are urged to increase vigilance. Tourists and residents traversing Mahmutlar, especially along Barbaros Street and specifically at the Kodal Çiçekçilik intersection, are advised to exercise extra caution. The lack of regulation at this junction has been a contributing factor to multiple accidents, underscoring the need for defensive driving and heightened awareness in busy areas like Mahmutlar.
