This year, the City of Tallinn will plant 3,500 trees in parks, courtyards, and along streets—matching the number of new little Tallinn residents expected to be born in 2025. It marks the city’s largest-ever tree-planting initiative, aimed at creating a healthier and greener urban environment.

The public discussion on the draft design conditions for the Pelguranna tramline will take place on 6 May at 17:30 at Tallinna Pelgulinna Riigigümnaasium. Experts will present feedback received on the draft, outline future plans, and answer participants' questions.

The City of Tallinn is transforming Aia Street into a green and vibrant public space this summer, complete with rest areas, play zones, urban furniture, and greenery.

Today, the cornerstone will be laid for the Lasnamäe Circular Economy Center, which will provide residents with convenient opportunities to dispose of waste, repair items, and reuse them. The center supports the city's commitment to more efficient waste management and the broader goal of reducing waste and promoting the sustainable use of resources. The center is scheduled to open in 2026.

Tallinn is planning to build a new Pelguranna tram line to create a faster and more convenient connection between Põhja-Tallinn and the city center. From March 4 to 25, all interested parties can share their opinions on the project’s planning conditions via the Pelguranna tram website. These conditions will define the key requirements and guidelines for the construction of the tramway.

Tallinna Vesi will install a stormwater drainage system, Utilitas will upgrade the district heating network, and the city will widen sidewalks, implement traffic-calming measures, and reconstruct street lighting. The goal of these upgrades is to make Salme Street more accessible and safer, particularly for children and the elderly.

Companies providing electric scooter and bicycle rental services in Tallinn will start the new season on March 1 after a three-month winter break.

From March 5 to June 15, construction work will take place on Odra Street, temporarily closing the street to traffic. Bus lines no. 54 and 67 will be rerouted. Access will be maintained for local residents, pedestrians, and cyclists.
