Extensive renovation of the Vuosaari road tunnel will begin on 6 January 2026, during which all technical systems and some tunnel structures will be upgraded. The road tunnel will be completely closed to traffic for approximately a year due to the construction work and its traffic will be diverted to the official alternative route. It is now time to get to know the use of the alternative route in order to make traffic as safe as possible.

Outbound Christmas traffic will soon begin. Now is the right time to review the basics of safe Christmas traffic. Fintraffic, the National Police Board, the Finnish Transport and Communications Agency Traficom, the Ministry of the Interior Department for Rescue Services, the Emergency Response Centre Agency and the Finnish Road Safety Council wish you a peaceful and safe journey!

The Vuosaari tunnel will be closed at the beginning of next year for extensive renovations, with traffic diverted to the official substitute route.  Multiple sections of the substitute route have been upgraded over the past year, and the currently tested substitute route is ready for diverted tunnel traffic next year. How did traffic flow during the test week, and what consideration are there for next year's traffic?  Learn more in the following article.

Fintraffic VTS is actively contributing to the developing of future of maritime services through the MaDaMe and ORMOBASS projects, co-funded by the EU’s Interreg Baltic Sea Region programme.

Fintraffic’s Air Navigation Services’ Flight Planning Centre (FPC) was established 15 years ago. Its purpose was to centralise support for air navigation services nationally at a single location. The Flan Planning Centre is a unique entity in Finland, and there is no equivalent anywhere in Europe. To celebrate the FPC’s anniversary, we are taking a look at how centralised flight planning services have been built over the years up to today.

Further improvements to the alternative route of the Vuosaari road tunnel will be ready by 5 October. Next, functionality tests of the alternative route will take place between 6 and 9 October. During the testing, the tunnel will be closed, and traffic will be directed to the improved alternative route.

As the autumn hunting season, the elk’s mating season and their migration to winter pastures begin, this will yet again result in unwanted elk encounters on our roads. Fintraffic’s Road Traffic Centre reminds drivers to maintain their vigilance, especially in morning and evening traffic and elk hazard areas: Drivers should maintain moderate driving speeds and long safety distances and keep their eyes on the road.
