June 7

From June 7, the southern branch of Ahtri tänav will be opened to traffic, and traffic in the harbor area will be fully restored.

The Old City Harbour tramway construction will reach a stage where both directions of Gonsiori tänav will be opened to public transport and regular vehicles, with a 1+1 lane available for crossing the Kaubamaja intersection. Inbound traffic to the city center has already been possible.

Traffic in the harbor area will be fully restored, and the southern branch of Ahtri tänav will be opened. The section between Hobujaama and Jõe will initially have a speed limit until the final asphalt layer is laid. Concurrently, the left lane of the northern branch of Ahtri tänav will be closed for approximately one week due to tram infrastructure construction.

With the opening of the southern branch of Ahtri tänav, the bus stop locations for lines No. 8, 20, 20A, 34, 38, and 66 will be adjusted from the beginning of the workday on June 7. The Ahtri and Siimeoni (temporary) stops will be reinstated on the southern branch of Ahtri tänav in the direction of Reidi tee.

June 10

Starting Monday, June 10, construction work on water and sewer lines will begin on F. R. Kreutzwaldi tänav, leading to traffic restrictions. At the same time, two-way traffic for both cars and public transport will be restored on Gonsiori tänav, which has been closed since March last year due to the construction of the Old City Harbour tramway.

Due to water and sewer line construction by Tallinna Vesi and Utilitas, traffic restrictions will be implemented on various sections of F. R. Kreutzwaldi tänav between Tartu maantee and Gonsiori tänav starting June 10. In later stages, the Kreutzwaldi-Kunderi intersection will also be temporarily closed. Detours will use Pronksi tänav, and pedestrian and cyclist access will be maintained. An agreement has been reached with Kesklinna Vene High School to suspend construction during exams and events. The current plan is for the work to continue until the end of summer.

Due to the construction on F. R. Kreutzwaldi tänav and the tramway construction, the routes of bus lines No. 9, 31, 35, 42, 46, 55, and 94 will be altered. F. R. Kreutzwaldi tänav will no longer be part of their route in either direction, with traffic redirected via Pronksi tänav towards the city center and via Gonsiori tänav when leaving the city center.
