The Tallinn Urban Environment and Public Works Department has launched a call for tenders to seek contract partners for the maintenance of main roads and road facilities, public transport stops and roadside green areas for the next seven years. The new contracts are aimed to improve the quality of maintenance in both summer and winter.
Starting from December, Tallinn will gradually modify parking regulations on certain streets to improve street maintenance and snow clearing. Parking will be prohibited on specific days of the week or at certain hours, and drivers are advised to pay attention to traffic signs.
Due to maintenance work near the intersection of Narva maantee and Filmi Street, one lane on Narva maantee in Kadriorg heading towards the city center is closed, which may lead to traffic congestion. The maintenance work will continue until late in the evening on September 23.
Starting today, 1 August, the maintenance of street lighting and electrical installations in Tallinn will be provided by AS Tallinna Linnatransport (TLT). For residents, the change in service provider brings no changes to the service itself, except for new contact details for reporting faults.
This winter, the City of Tallinn will increase its snow clearing operations on sidewalks in the Kesklinn and Põhja-Tallinn districts, while maintaining the usual scope in other districts.
Starting June 1, the Tallinn Transport Department will have a new contract partner for traffic control equipment maintenance - KiirWarren.KL OÜ. Consequently, the contact information for reporting traffic light failures or damaged signs will change.
The Tallinn City Government has presented the City Council with the first supplementary budget proposal for 2024, increasing the total city budget by 9.5 million euros. One of the priorities of the supplementary budget is the urban landscape and mobility sectors, with additional funds allocated primarily to improve the quality of winter street maintenance and to develop landscaping.
