An informal meeting of the EU Agricultural Ministers will affect traffic in Helsinki and Vantaa from Sunday 22 September to Tuesday 24 September. Delays and changes to public transport are expected in particular in the central city area as well as between Helsinki Airport and Helsinki city center.

Motorcades will cause disruptions to public transport on Sunday 22 September. Traffic will be disrupted several days between Helsinki Airport and Helsinki city center throughout the day. The disruptions will affect, for example, bus services running along Tuusulanväylä, Ring Road I, Hämeenlinnanväylä and Mannerheimintia. There may be major delays to these routes.

In addition, there will be disruptions to traffic on Mannerheimintie on Tuesday 24 September as ministerial motorcades travel to Finlandia Hall in the morning, about 8am to 9am. Disruptions to traffic are expected also in Tuesday afternoon from 1pm between Finlandia Hall and Helsinki Airport.
