Interruptions to rail traffic will continue in the Tikkurila station
Preparatory work on the Vantaa Light Rail is under way at Tikkurila station. Some of the work will cause noise, and noisy work will also be occasionally carried out at night. Tikkurila station will operate as normal throughout the preparatory work. Please also note that there is train traffic on the Santarata line. The trains operate at night between 10:00 PM and 5:00 AM.
The period of the next interruption to rail traffic and noisy work:
Track 1 will be out of use from 27 October to 12 December
Noisy work will be carried out around the clock between 1 November and 15 November.
Noisy work will be carried out at different times of the day. We will inform you if there are any changes to these planned times. We need to carry out noisy work at night because there is less traffic on the main railway at night, and our work must accommodate railway traffic.
Examples of work that will cause noise include the installation of sheet pile walls and bored pile driving. During interruptions to rail traffic, temporary bridges will be put in place in the track and station platform area. The construction of the tunnel can continue under these bridges even after the interruptions to rail traffic. The work was commissioned by the City of Vantaa and Destia acts as the construction partner.
We monitor noise levels regularly and will carry out the work with as little noise as possible. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause, and we thank you for your patience. If you wish, you can pick up earplugs from Tikkurila Library at Lummetie 4 during the library's opening hours.
