Traffic will be moved to the south side of the street. There will be one lane operating in each direction, but the lanes will be narrower than usual.
Parking will not be possible on Aleksis Kiven katu between Kustaankatu and Kinaporinkatu and on Fleminginkatu between Satamaradankatu and Aleksis Kiven katu.
Pedestrian traffic
The pavement on the north side of the street will be closed, and pedestrian traffic will be diverted to the south side. A route will be opened for pedestrians from the Dallapénpuisto square to the south side of Aleksis Kiven katu.
Bicycle traffic
The cycle path in the middle of the street will be closed and bicycle traffic will be diverted to the south side of the street.
Public transport
The bus stop used by buses 500 and 510 in the Pasila direction will not be in use. There will be a new bus stop on Junatie. There is more information available in the HSL bulletin. In addition, the junction permitted for taxis and buses between Teollisuuskatu and Aleksis Kiven katu will be closed.
The first stages of the renovation will include moving a gas pipe at Aleksis Kiven katu and constructing a temporary water distribution system at Fleminginkatu.
The renovation involves water supply modernisation at several streets
In the construction project, the old water supply network will be replaced at Aleksis Kiven katu, Fleminginkatu, Kustaankatu, Vaasankatu, Harjukatu and Kinaporinkatu. Updating the area’s water supply system is important to avoid major repairs and pipe failures.
