On Wednesday, July 3, construction will begin on Kadaka puiestee to replace the current deteriorating overpass with a new viaduct. This project aims to ensure a safer traffic environment for all road users, including pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles. The construction will result in changes to traffic arrangements and public transport operations.
Due to the new phase of the Old City Harbour tramway construction, traffic management will be adjusted around the Linnahall intersection area starting Monday, July 1, and a segment of Rannamäe tee will be temporarily closed to facilitate the construction of a bicycle path.
Since June 1 of last year, all properties and institutions in Tallinn are required to collect bio-waste separately. To promote waste sorting, the city continues to provide free bio-waste containers to single-family homes, semi-detached houses, and residential buildings with 3-9 apartments.
From August 12 to August 18, the Tallinn Waste Centre is organizing a campaign for the free disposal of bulk waste, allowing residents of Tallinn to drop off their large waste items at any of the city’s four waste stations.
Tallinn's waste stations and circular economy center are inviting visitors for educational tours, welcoming kindergarten and primary school groups as well as businesses and institutions. These environmental education tours provide practical advice on sorting waste and demonstrate how old items can be repurposed.
Tallinn is continuing the restoration of Pääsküla Bog. Over ten weekends, residents are invited to help block drainage ditches in the bog to raise the groundwater level and support the return of the unique wetland ecosystem.
On the weekends of 10–11 May and 17–18 May, the City of Tallinn will once again organise collection rounds for hazardous household waste and reusable items. These rounds allow residents to conveniently, safely, and sustainably dispose of hazardous materials and give new life to items they no longer need.
From May 12 to 18, residents of Tallinn (as registered in the population register) can once again bring their bulky waste—such as unusable furniture, bicycles, or baby strollers—to the city’s waste stations and the Lilleküla Circular Economy Centre free of charge.
From November 18 to November 24, the Tallinn Circular Economy Center is organizing another campaign, allowing city residents to dispose of bulky waste at city waste stations free of charge.
