Bolu A zone with seismic risk

Geological risk in Bolu ● There are about inhabitants in Bolu. ● On August 17 th 1999 an earthquake in Turkey killed people. ● 9 cities were damaged, Bolu was one.

<== Here! North-Anatolian fault

The North- Anatolian fault is one of the highest energy-levelled seismic zone in the world. It's 1000 km long, it runs across the North of Turkey from East to West, only 20 km away from Istanbul. <--- Fault

Buildings Which were ruined There were consequent material damage :

Fault Visible damage on the ground

Distorted railway after the earthquake Visible damage on the ground
