Ac­Ac- cording to SaIIiSalli (1964), the lowermost rocks in stratigraphy are arkosic quartz-feldspar schists overlain by conglomerates and greywackes.

  • Questionnaire For
    Response to questionnaire for: Assessment of strategic plans and policy measures on Investment and Maintenance in Transport Infrastructure Country: Finland 1 INTRODUCTION Because of the geographical situation and the population density, traffic flows in Finland are quite low and travelling distances are long. Role of the motor traffic is predominant compared to other ways of transport. Development and quantity of sea traffic is directly subject to changes in economy. In the long term, role of the railroad traffic has been stable. Motor traffic and air traveling are on the increase. 1.1 Infrastructure In Finland, there are 765 km of motorways, 78 000 km of roads (of which 13 300 km are highways or main roads). Out of those 78 000 km, almost two-thirds are paved roads. Addition to that, there are 350 000 km of private roads. There are 5 919 km railroads, of which 52% are electric railroads. There aren’t any high speed lines in Finland. In Finland, there are 16 200 km of inland waterways, of which approx. 3 900 km are used in merchant shipping. Largest maritime ports by freight traffic are (with their handling capacity statistics from 2011) Sköldvik (import 12.74 mill.ton. / export 22.16 mill.ton.), Helsinki (import 6.29 mill.ton. / export 11.23 mill.ton.), Naantali (import 5.20 mill.ton / export 8.00 mill.ton.), HaminaKotka (import 5.1 mill.ton. / export 8.0 mill.ton.) and Raahe (import 4.83 mill.ton. / export 5.69 mill.ton.).
