Unfortunately, construction work always causes some noise and vibration disturbances to the immediate environment.
We will carry out the construction according to the permits granted by the environmental authority, and we will also measure the noise levels, when necessary.… Lue

This matter has been researched since the 1990s. When deciding on the route, we have sought a compromise between the number of passengers and travel times.… Lue
The average distance between the stops is 800 metres. In the previous planning phases (the preliminary master plan and the project plan), we have sought optimal locations for the stops so that the stops would serve as large a number of passengers as possible, but also enable sufficiently short travel times.… Lue
We will prepare for the park-and-ride parking of bicycles at all stops, and the stops will have good cycling connections.… Lue
On the contrary. Jokeri Light Rail will reduce emissions significantly. The carbon dioxide emissions are estimated to decrease by 85%, nitrogen oxide emissions (NOx) are estimated to decrease by 95% and particle emissions (PM) are estimated to decrease by 70% compared to the ‘Jokeri Bus’ (line 550).… Lue
In the plans for Jokeri Light Rail, links between means of transport have been taken into account particularly in the interchange stations for trains and the metro and radial main routes.… Lue
Moving trunk line 550 onto rails will allow us to transport a growing number of passengers
