The Tallinn Strategic Management Office will conduct a survey in August among night bus users to determine their expectations and preferences regarding the service. The results will aid in better understanding the typical profile of a night bus user, evaluating the outcomes of the pilot project and planning the future use of night buses.

Night buses will continue to operate in Tallinn until at least the end of the year. Starting from November 1, departure days and times will be adjusted based on when the service has the most users.
