Several construction projects involving asphalting roads and renewing stormwater sewers, cable tubing and outdoor lighting are set to start in Malmi, Oulunkylä, Pihlajamäki and Pukinmäki in early spring.
Roads and traffic arrangements will be improved in Northeast and North Helsinki in late winter and early spring. At the same time, the City will be renewing stormwater sewers, cable tubing and outdoor lighting.
Tapaninkylä
- Soinintie, Miekkapolku, Kalpakuja and Vallesmanninkuja will be asphalted and fitted with kerbstones. In addition to this, stormwater sewers and stormwater connections will be renovated in the area. Outdoor lighting will also be renewed and cable tubing installed. The project has already begun in part, and the target for completion is in 2025.
Oulunkylä
- Changes will be made to pedestrian and cycling routes on Maapadontie and Kivipadontie as well as towards Käskynhaltijantie. New one-way cycling routes will be built in the junction. The current traffic island, part of the stormwater sewer and outdoor lighting will be renewed in connection with the project. A missing stormwater sewer will be built on Maapadontie. In addition to this, a green strip will be built on Käskynhaltijantie between the pedestrian and cycling routes. The project is set to be completed in October 2025.
- Kerbstones will be rearranged on Jokiniementie and Larin Kyöstin polku to accommodate the new traffic island, bus stop and traffic calmer that are going to be built in the area. At the same time, changes will be made to stormwater sewers and cable tubing and outdoor lighting will be renewed. The work has already started on Jokiniementie. The project is set to be completed in October 2025.
Pukinmäki
- A new building has been completed at the corner of Madetojankuja and Säterintie, and the location of the plot requires changes to be made to the pedestrian and cycling routes and pedestrian crossing. Madetojankuja will be overhauled in conjunction with this project: new stormwater sewers will be built, outdoor lighting and cable tubing installed and surfacing work carried out. Small changes to driveways will also be carried out on Säterintie. One tree will be removed from the work area and replaced by two new trees planted in a slightly different location. The project is set to be completed in October 2025.
Fallkulla wedge and Tapanila
- The construction on the last plot in the so-called Fallkulla wedge (Fallkullan kiila) will be completed this summer. Street surfacing work will continue in the area between Suurmetsäntie and Sammalpolku. The project will be ongoing this summer and next year. The exact schedule will be impacted by the completion of the unfinished plot.
- Trees will be planted in Joutsenpuisto park and rock arrangements will be created in the ditch around Longinoja. The plan is to plant all the trees in the area in autumn 2025.
Pihlajamäki
- The detailed plan for the area surrounding the Pihjajamäki shopping centre is complete. The City will be building streets in keeping with the detailed plan on Meripihkatie, for example. At the same time, traffic lights will be renewed and cycling routes harmonised in the Pihlajamäentie junction. The project is expected to be completed in November 2025.
