The focus of Tallinn's 2024 budget in the transportation sector is on renewing the fleet, developing and modernizing the network, and increasing the eco-friendliness of public transport. Tallinn residents will continue to have access to free public transportation, and night bus service will become a permanent feature. Additionally, the salaries of bus, tram, and trolleybus drivers will increase by 15% next year.

One of the priorities in Tallinn's 2024 budget is the development of a comfortable and safe urban space, which includes investments in transportation infrastructure and making streets more pedestrian-friendly. The city budget has allocated over 47.5 million euros for the reconstruction and major repairs of roads and streets. Key projects for the coming year include the reconstruction of Peterburi maantee and Lastekodu Street, the construction of pedestrian tunnels on Paldiski maantee, the reconstruction of the Kadaka viaduct, and the construction of the first phase of Pollinator Highway green corridor.

Tallinn continues project “Fireproof homes” aimed at low-income residents in cooperation with the Rescue Board.

From September 18 to October 8, all residents of Tallinn have the opportunity to submit their ideas for projects to be included in next year's participatory budget. Anyone interested can participate in an informative webinar today at 17:30 on Microsoft Teams.
