The public transport of Tallinn will switch over to winter working hours on 1 September, which means that the timetables of many bus routes and all tram and trolleybus routes will change.

Tallinn City Government has approved the plan for the Rail Baltic Ülemiste passenger terminal and its surrounding area. According to the plan, Ülemiste will be transformed into a transport node linking different nodes of transport, which will significantly improve the quality of public transport.

On Saturday 24 December and Monday 26 December, Tallinn public transport will operate according to Sunday timetables.

On New Year's Eve and New Year's Night, public transport vehicles normally stopping near Vabaduse Square will be diverted to detours and the operating hours of public transport lines serving the main routes of the city will be extended.

As of Monday, 9 January, buses of express bus line 14 will stop at the Vineeri bus stop and buses of the express bus line 46 will stop at the Humala bus stop. Bus No 59 will stop at Pikakari bus stop.

Due to the construction of the second phase of the Vanasadama tram line, which will begin in April, changes will be made to 27 bus routes. From 4 April to 31 May 2023, buses 1, 2, 8, 9, 11, 14, 18, 18A, 20, 20A, 23, 29, 31, 34, 35, 38, 40, 44, 46, 48, 51, 55, 60, 63, 67 and 68 will be rerouted and bus 15 will change.

Narva mnt and the Hobujaama intersection will remain open. The construction work will cause changes to 27 bus line routes.

According to the draft budget for Tallinn 2023, the priorities in the field of transport are the development and modernization of the public transport network and improving environmental approaches of public transport in the capital. It will also ensure that public transport continues to be free of charge for the residents of Tallinn.

Starting from September 1, Tallinn's public transport system will transition to its autumn-winter schedule. This change will affect the timetables of many bus routes and all trolleybus routes, while tram schedules will remain unchanged.

Several roadworks in the city are nearing completion, bringing some relief to traffic and allowing certain bus lines that were previously diverted to return to their usual routes. However, ongoing projects in Tallinn will continue to affect traffic in the coming weeks.
