Trunk line network
The trunk line network will start operation on 1 July 2025. The new network is based on trunk lines that will offer such a frequent service that passengers can go to a stop at any time without having to check timetables. Trunk lines are complemented by feeder lines, supplementary lines and specialised school and service lines.
Objectives
The reform aims at streamlining transportation. The introduction of the trunk lines will increase the number of transverse lines, and the lines will run more frequently and accessibility will be improved throughout the Föli area.
We will also be developing routes and the service level of public transport, as well as communications directed at passengers, bus stop infrastructure and equipment.
Why a trunk line network?
The purpose of the renewal is to make everyday transport easier and faster for people in the Turku region. The network and the hierarchy between lines are clarified. The new circular trunk line offers a multitude of new, fast and simple travel alternatives. Thanks to the new lines and service hours, our service will be better able to meet current, changing transportation needs.
The trunk lines allow for easy, flexible and fast access to the core of the Turku region. For people living within the service area of the network, it offers an opportunity to arrange their transportation based almost entirely on public transport.
The first trunk line drafts were published in May 2018. The public were given an opportunity to provide feedback on the draft until September 2018. We received approximately one thousand pieces of electronic feedback. Feedback was also requested at public events.
The plans are currently being updated to meet the requirements of 2025.
