The Aleksanterinkatu Bridge will undergo renovation in the summer of 2026

The most visible construction project of summer 2026 will be the renovation of the Aleksanterinkatu Bridge, which will have a significant impact on traffic. A new traffic light intersection will be built on the west side of the bridge, and renovation work will begin in the Art Factory waterfront area. In addition, traffic lights will be upgraded on the eastern section of Aleksanterinkatu.

The bridge will be completely closed to vehicular traffic for the summer from June 1 to August 10. Public transit routes will be rerouted during the school vacation period, and other traffic will be diverted to detours. Boat traffic passing under the bridge will continue as normal.
