New Bicycle Highway Open – Eastern Baana || Here in Helsinki

Описание: The latest section of Eastern Baana (Itäbaana / Östra banan) opened in 2025, creating a shortcut from Kulosaari Boulevard cycle street toward Herttoniemi Metro Station. The 1 km route includes a bicycle roundabout and a new bridge over the previous alignment along a busy road. From the roundabout, Eastern Baana continues east with a 4-metre-wide cycle path and a separated pedestrian path alongside the metro. The end of the section has been upgraded from a service road into a slow-traffic local street, from where the route will continue further east.

Eastern Baana is part of a major plan to create a continuous, high-quality cycling network connecting East Helsinki to the city centre, improving flow, safety, and comfort for cyclists.
