During the service disruptions, train services from Leppävaara in the direction of Kauklahti, Kirkkonummi and Siuntio will be replaced by buses. Buses 211U and 211X will replace U, L and Y trains between Leppävaara, Kirkkonummi and Siuntio. The buses will stop at all intermediate stations or near the stations. Bus 211X will only have one service from Leppävaara to Siuntio.
Replacement buses:
- 211E, Leppävaara–Kauniainen–Espoo–Kauklahti
- 211U, Leppävaara–Kauniainen–Espoo–Kauklahti–Kirkkonummi
- 211X, Leppävaara–Kauniainen–Espoo–Kauklahti–Kirkkonummi–Siuntio
- 213X, Elielinaukio–Turunväylä–Espoo
The replacement buses will depart from bay 11 in Leppävaara. The timetables and routes of the buses are available in the Journey Planner.
The disruptions will affect commuter train services from Leppävaara towards Kauklahti, Kirkkonummi and Siuntio. In May, services will be disrupted on Sunday 5 May, Thursday 9 May (Ascension Day), Sunday 19 May, and Sunday 26 May. In addition, there will be a longer five-week disruption from 24 June to 28 July, as well as shorter service disruptions of one to two days in the autumn.
The Espoo City Rail Link project of the Finnish Transport Infrastructure Agency entails the construction of two new tracks between Leppävaara and Kauklahti. Once completed, the rail link will improve the punctuality of commuter train services in Kirkkonummi and Espoo as well as the punctuality of long-distance train services in the direction of Turku. In addition, improvements will be made to the Kilo, Kera, Kaunainen, Koivuhovi, Tuomarila and Kauklahti train stations. The project started in spring 2021 and it is scheduled to be completed in 2028.
