Kruunusillat – new tramway to Laajasalo

Trams will begin operating in new areas when the new tram connection between Hakaniemi and Laajasalo opens. The goal is to have two new tram lines, 11 and 12, operating on HSL public transport by the end of 2026.

Tramway to Laajasalo in a nutshell

Swift journeys

The journey between Yliskylä in Laajasalo and Hakaniemi takes only about 18 minutes

Directly to Pasila

The tram running between Kruunuvuorenranta and Pasila will also serve Kalasatama Metro Station

Frequent services

Tram 11 to Kruunuvuorenranta has the same service frequency as tram 13, while tram 12 to Yliskylä will provide an even more frequent service

Tram routes via Kruunusillat once the trams begin operating

11: Kruunuvuorenranta–Kalasatama–Pasila

12: Yliskylä–Hakaniemi

Tram 12 will provide a new direct link between Helsinki city center and Laajasalo. Once tram 12 begins operating, the aim is for it to run all the way to the Railway Square instead of Hakaniemi due to the Metro service disruption in 2027. The terminus will move to Hakaniemi once the renovation of Kaivokatu and Kaisaniemenkatu begins after the construction work on the Junatie Metro bridge is complete.

Changes to bus services in Laajasalo

Bus routes and service frequencies in Laajasalo will change once tram services begin, currently estimated to take place in early 2027. Bus services will continue to provide frequent and comprehensive connections between Laajasalo and Herttoniemi Metro Station.

More detailed information on the changes to bus services in Laajasalo can be found in the Transport Service Plan for 2026–2027. Read the plan.

Key changes:

Route 84 will be withdrawn.
Routes 85 and 85N will remain unchanged. Route 85K will run via Reiherintie in the morning peak.
Route 86 will run via Reiherintie. Routes 86K and 86N will be withdrawn.

Diversions due to construction work

The construction work carried out in connection with the project will also cause changes to other public transport services. On our website at HSL.fi, you’ll always find up-to-date information on any possible changes to public transport services. To learn more about the project, visit kruunusillat.fi.
