Tallinn’s 2025 budget emphasizes the principles of the 15-minute city and an analysis of the spatial distribution of services. This approach enables more efficient planning for new kindergartens, schools, and services for seniors, improving accessibility and aligning with community needs.
Next year, Tallinn will continue with several significant restoration projects, some of which began this year. The draft 2025 city budget allocates €2.8 million for the restoration of the Toompea retaining wall, bastions, and city wall.
As of today, December 1, tram line 2 begins operating through Vanasadam (Old City Harbour). The tram currently runs on the route Kopli–Vanasadam–Suur-Paala but will extend to the airport once the Ülemiste Rail Baltic terminal is completed.
Starting December 1, Tallinn and Harju County will launch a redesigned and more secure Ühiskaart (public transport card), with its price increasing from €2 to €3. Existing Ühiskaart cards will remain valid, and no replacement is required.
