I merged the two articles together. It is stupid to have two articles about the same road. Please don't restore or revert without discussion first.
In doing the merger, I copy edited the text of the article. A lot of work still needs to be done on this article to meet expectations of a good article on a highway.
I am not taking any position in the edit-warring over which article is "correct" or whatever. It's just stupid though to have two articles on the same road. Please work together to improve this one article. As a compromise, I tried to bring content from both together to this one. I suggest that if someone wants to make a change to the article, that he proposes that change in a section on this talk page. I'm very willing to help anyone improve this article. I have written over 100 Good Articles on roads in the US, including six articles that are now Featured Articles and another six articles that have passed the U.S. Roads WikiProject A-Class Review.

Oppose merging: I don't think the adjective stupid is a convenient word in an encyclopaedic discussion. Besides this discussion should have been carried before the merging. Anyway, there were two articles because they were not identical.
Consequently, both articles had some information where the other article lacked. (This was what I previously wrote to User:ont after he tried to delete the Datça Mersin highway . ) Even after merging some information is still lost. And a further comment; copy and paste merging results in the loss of page history of one of the articles. Nedim Ardoğa ( talk) 05:47, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
When units are part of the subject of a topic—nautical miles in articles about the history of nautical law, SI units in scientific articles, yards in articles about American football—it can be excessive to provide conversions every time a unit occurs. It could be best to note that this topic will use the units (possibly giving the conversion factor to another familiar unit in a parenthetical note or a footnote), and link the first occurrence of each unit but not give a conversion every time it occurs.
Imzadi, previously thank you very much againist the edit war between me and Nedim. We need to contrib more about Turkish Highways (both D- roads and Otoyollar.)
About the article's construction; I think, the km table on the article should be show its sections (400-01, 400-02 ... 400-XX) as cited by KGM's road maps.
Also notice, another article started by Nedim that should be a disambiguation page instead of deletion. And why Nedim's POV name isn't on the Turkish wikipedia instead of this? Onur T 19:23, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
