Deputy Mayor Tanel Kiik, responsible for transportation in Tallinn, introduced options and primary considerations for alternatives for the construction of the Järve-Pelguranna-Liivalaia tramway today at a seminar organised by the Tallinn City Council.
The construction of the Vanasadama tram line will change the appearance of several streets in Tallinn's city centre, and at the intersection of Gonsiori and Laikmaa streets (a.k.a Kaubamaja junction), pedestrians will be able to cross on the ground instead of the tunnel.
Along with the upcoming reconstuction of Pikk tänav in the Old Town, the City of Tallinn is considering extending the car-free zone along the entire street. Feedback from residents is invited until 7 October.
