developing principles for the use of Veromies area, the area south of the Helsinki-Vantaa airport. This current business and industrial area will be developed to become a diverse city of work, living, services and recreation. The first comfortable urban quarters will be completed by 2020. The whole development will take decades. The local master plan guiding the usage of land in Vantaa allows for development of a mixed city structure in the east of Lentoasemantie road. This frame plan suggests housing and efficient business opportunities also to the west of Lentoasemantie, right by the new railway The Ring Rail Line. The central guiding effect of the frame plan is to shape the city. The existing large-scale block structure is transformed into a smaller, walkable urban neighbourhood. The quarter efficiency needs to be quite high and the street landscapes urban. As a contrast to the efficiency and dense street network, there will be urban open spaces, which consist of small gardens, green courtyards, trees and a few larger park areas. The whole area leans on the public-transport trunk routes and street environment is designed for the pedestrian scale. Parking will be guided to parking facilities. The main functions of the area will be tied to the so-called ‘circle of interest’. Therefore they will be centrally located and easily accessible. The main services, main businesses and the stops for public- transport trunk will all be along the circle of interest. The crucial visual and functional centres of the area require execution of high standard. The frame plan guides the development of the local detailed plan, defining the development trend of the area and setting the general features of the land use. The frame plan will be expanded in the more detailed planning. Aviapolismixer (kaavarunko page 5) Aviapolis Frame Plan 1-5 1 INTRODUCTION

  • FINEST BAY AREA DEVELOPMENT OY ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT Finest Bay Area - Railway Tunnel Between Finland and Estonia
    FINEST BAY AREA DEVELOPMENT OY ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT Finest Bay Area - Railway tunnel between Finland and Estonia The world’s longest railway tunnel project that uses private funding Finest Bay Area - Railway tunnel between Finland and Estonia The goal of the project is to construct an undersea railway tunnel between Finland and Estonia that serves both passenger and freight traffic and significantly reduces travel time between the countries. The travel time target between Helsinki Airport and Ülemiste airport in Estonia is approximately 20 minutes. The planned railway tunnel merges the Helsinki region and Tallinn into a single metropolis. The tunnel will connect Asia and Europe into a single hub for business, travel and traffic, since the tunnel project makes it possible to travel to Tallinn by train directly from Helsinki Airport. On the Estonian side, the possible connection with the Rail Baltica project will connect the region even more closely to Central Europe. Facts about the project • Tunnel length approx. 100 km. • The total cost of the project is estimated at EUR 15 billion. • The project is based on private funds. Control over the project company will remain in Finland, with project financing provided by international investors from all over the world. Equity will amount to 30% of the financing and 70% will be covered by debt. • At the moment, a one-way ticket costs 50 euros, a return ticket 100 euros and a yearly ticket 1,000 euros. Tickets are available from an online store: https://shop.finestbayarea.online/ • The project involves planning an artificial island which, according to the larger option, would enable real estate development on the island.

Conclusion 2 Executive summary The key findings in this report: ● The justification for the construction of the tunnel is based on the daily commuting between Helsinki area and Tallinn area. The business potential of long term passenger transportation as well as freight transportation is of minor significance, and the business case is viable based solely on commuting traffic. ● The utilization of the artificial islands has not been discussed in this report, but the potential should not be underestimated. ● A 1435/1524 mm dual gauge track is the recommended solution, with 1435 mm tracks dedicated for Rail Baltica passenger trains ending underneath the Helsinki railway station.
