The Finnish Transport Agency started operating on January 1st 2010.
The new agency combines the Rail Administration and parts of the Maritime Administration and Road Administration. The Road Regions are now parts of the new Centres for Economic Development, Transport and the Environment.
The complete structural reform of the transport administration will facilitate more comprehensive traffic system thinking as the various modes of transport come together under the new Transport Infrastructure Agency.
Real-time traffic information
Road weather conditions, roadworks on public roads, border traffic and other traffic information is available behind the Travel and Traffic Information button.
Beside the destination also the journey can be enjoyable! A well-planned route offers plenty to see for the whole family: Scenic Routes, historic bridges and roads, road art and easily accessible rest areas. Although the traffic culture in Finland can be seen moderate, Finnish Road Administration offers a lot of useful information for both unhurried and goal oriented visitors.
Finland, being a sparsly populated country prompts people to travel long distances between destinations. On average people travel about 16 km and for about 83 minutes per day. The average daily commute is 13 km. Seventy percent of the households have the possibility of using a car.
