One of the priorities in Tallinn's 2024 budget is the development of a comfortable and safe urban space, which includes investments in transportation infrastructure and making streets more pedestrian-friendly. The city budget has allocated over 47.5 million euros for the reconstruction and major repairs of roads and streets. Key projects for the coming year include the reconstruction of Peterburi maantee and Lastekodu Street, the construction of pedestrian tunnels on Paldiski maantee, the reconstruction of the Kadaka viaduct, and the construction of the first phase of Pollinator Highway green corridor.

Following a successful pilot project this year in cooperation with electric scooter rental services Bolt and Tuul in Tallinn, the city plans to expand scooter parking areas next year. The aim is to organize parking for micro-mobility vehicles in a way that is safer for pedestrians.

During the last two weekends of October, residents of Tallinn participated in a city-organized collection drive, handing over approximately 23,930.90 kilograms of hazardous waste and 107 cubic meters of reusable items. Tallinn residents have the ongoing opportunity to dispose of their hazardous household waste at no cost at six designated collection points throughout the city and at four waste treatment plants all year round.

Beginning from 1 September, electric scooter services provided by Bolt and Tuul can only be ended at designated parking areas. Since the start of the pilot project at the beginning of August, 126 dedicated scooter parking areas have been constructed in the City Centre. Until now, users had the opportunity to familiarise themselves with the locations and their use. Now, using these spaces is compulsory.

From 7 March, construction works will start for the first phase of the Vanasadama tramline, causing changes in the traffic regulation in the city center.

The construction of the new tram line in Tallinn’s City Centre is stopping the operation of tram lines 2 and 4 from 17 April to 2 July.
