Changes to tram routes in autumn 2024 – Mannerheimintie street works to be carried out between Runeberginkatu and Reijolankatu

The next changes to tram routes will take place on 2 September, when the Mannerheimintie renovation project proceeds to the next phase. Trams 2, 3, 4 and 10 will be diverted until the end of 2025.

As the first phase of the Mannerheimintie renovation project comes to an end in the autumn, trams 4 and 10 will resume running along Mannerheimintie between Lasipalatsi and the Opera.

In the next phase, the street work will move to the section between Runeberginkatu and Reijolankatu and tram route 2, 4 and 10 will be diverted. The diversions are expected to remain in place until late 2025.

The diversions put in place in June will remain in place until September. Read more about the diversions in our service update.

About the Mannerheimintie renovation project

The renovation of Mannerheimintie entails replacing the 100-year-old underground utility supplies as well as street surface structures. Pedestrian and cycle paths will be upgraded and new tram tracks will be installed. The second phase of the renovation between Runeberginkatu and Reijolankatu will begin in September. The renovation will affect tram and bus services until late 2025.

HSL is not responsible for the work, but we plan the diversion routes. We have planned the diversion routes with the aim that the work would cause as little disruption to public transport passengers as possible.
