Updated 2 April 4pm: the situation is still good and no changes are expected to bus service over the next two days.
Despite the disruptions to fuel deliveries, our key transport links i.e. the trunk route buses, are mainly working well. Most of the buses on trunk routes are electric buses. In addition, all trams, the metro and trains run on electricity.
We are gathering information about the situation but even at this stage, it seems that the effects on bus services will be significant if the operators run out of fuel.
According to the information provided by bus operators, the situation is currently good and no changes are expected to bus services in the next few days. If the situation changes, fuel will not run out simultaneously at all depots.
We will keep monitoring the situation and inform passengers about potential service changes. Information about potential changes to services is provided via the HSL app and at HSL.fi.
