In this case " taşımaktaydı ´ means "It was carrying" [ it has been carrying ]

 

taşımak - to carry

 

taşımakta - it is carrying

 

taşımakta + y [buffering letter] +[past tense] ---> it was carrying [it has been carrying ]

 

-makta,-mekte suffix generally expresses progressive aspect but can occur with habitual meaning in relatively formal contexts.

 

The difference between -Iyor and - mAktA is;

 

- with -Iyor being less formal and therefore much the more common in conversation.

 

- however -mAktA may occur in relatively informal speech where a speaker wishes to emphasize the intensity of the ongoing event.

 

example ;

 

´Bugün aile yapısı hızla değişmektedir´

 

´Today the structure of the family is changing rapidly.´

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

A precisely smilar meanings is seen in past tense with -Iyordu and - mAktAydı

 

  

 

´ O yıllarda aile yapısı hızla değişmekteydi´

 

 

´ In those years the structure of the family was changing rapidly.´

....yine yabancı dillerin etkisiyle gelişen ve Türkçenin yapısına uygun olmayan birtakım dil bilgisi kurallarını da tasfiye amacı taşımaktaydı.

 so the translation of the text would be ;

....Again It was carrying the purpose of clearing [removing] some grammar rules that had been developed by the ınfluence of foreign languages and werent suitable for the structure of Turkish Language.´
