The City of Tallinn is planning a major redesign of the Kristiine junction to improve mobility for everyone and prepare for the future tramline extension.

The Tallinn Transport Department is improving traffic management at the intersection of Reidi tee and Jõe Street to increase the junction’s capacity, particularly for traffic heading towards Ahtri Street. The work includes adjustments to road markings and lane layouts to ensure smoother traffic flow and reduce congestion.

The Tallinn City Government has approved the locations of polling stations for the 2025 local elections. The updated list reflects voters’ preferences for casting their ballots in shopping centres, improved accessibility, and participation rates in previous elections. Polling stations with fewer than 600 voters will be merged with others. In total, 43 physical polling stations will be open across Tallinn, with one additional station designated for organising voting at the voter's location.

The Tallinn Electoral Committee will accept applications for candidacy in the City Council and district councils from 20 August to 9 September.

Until Thursday, 16 October, all voters can cast their vote at any of the 16 citywide polling stations across Tallinn, regardless of their place of residence. Starting from Friday, voting will only be possible in the voter’s home electoral district.

To vote in the Tallinn City Council elections, a voter’s official address in the population register must be in Tallinn no later than 19 September 2025. The voter lists are compiled based on the population register data as of that date.
