Train traffic between Helsinki and Kupittaa will return to normal on August 5

Track work for the Finnish Transport Infrastructure Agency’s Espoo Rail Line project caused a five-week traffic interruption on the west-side Coastal Railway from 24 June to 28 July.

HSL's commuter traffic will also return to normal.
