Helsinki completes general plan for Crown Bridges tram connection

Kruunusillat_ilmakuvaCity of Helsinki has completed a general plan for a proposed tram line connecting the city centre and Laajasalo over the Crown Bridges. The total estimated cost of construction would be EUR 259 million. The cost of the related tram equipment and depot would be approximately EUR 100 million.
The 10-km tram line will have 15 stops, with 15 min time travel  from Railway Station to Kruunuvuorenranta, from 40 min.
The general plan for the tram connection and related infrastructure makes it possible to prepare an assessment of the cost, feasibility and impact of the Crown Bridges project for decision making. The bridges would integrate Laajasalo, Kruunuvuorenranta and Kalasatama into the inner city and provide a fast route between the areas for cyclists and pedestrians.
