Construction work is currently in progress in the Ranta-Tampella residential area and the northern part of the Naistenlahti interchange, following the opening of the Rantaväylä tunnel. Due to the work, the Paasikivenkatu-Kekkosenkatu street is blocked between Näsijärvenkatu and Naistenlahti. There is also a block on Tampella Esplanade, near the railway bridge. We recommend using the tunnel when driving from Tampella or the western city centre, particularly during rush hours.
The onset of winter will again be accompanied by the maintenance of thoroughfares by the city and building maintenance companies. The city will be responsible for winter maintenance of roadways, pavements and cycle paths. Proprietors—in practice, building maintenance companies and the occupants of low-rise dwellings—are responsible for the winter maintenance of the driveways to their plots and the pavements adjacent to them. The winter maintenance of streets entails the removal of snow and ice and gritting.

The council voted on the matter, and the construction of the tramway was passed by 41 votes to 25 (1 no vote).

The City of Tampere wants to promote affinity and equality among its residents by encouraging immigrants to use their right to vote in next spring’s municipal elections.
The first plans for the new Moomin Museum were made almost two years ago. Now, Tampere Hall is offering a glimpse behind the scenes in the Making of Moomin Museum exhibition, which has now opened in the Winter Garden. The first moving crates for the new Moomin Museum have arrived at the Winter Garden, and they tell stories of the making of the museum and offer glimpses into its future. The Tampere Art Museum Moominvalley closed its doors on Puutarhakatu on 30th October 2016.
