The Ministry of Climate agrees to fund the construction of a tramline in Pelguranna. However, Tallinn must meet the ministry's conditions and answer questions. The city has until mid-October to respond.
The new tramline route on Putukaväil serves fewer people than the old route. Studies have shown that the tramline is still better than having no tramline at all. The ministry has decided that Tallinn can proceed with the project.
The state cannot dictate to Tallinn where the tramline should be built. The state only assesses the feasibility of the project. If Tallinn claims that the new route is better, the state agrees with it.
Tallinn must respond by October 14th to very important questions. These questions concern Puhangu and Ehte streets, pedestrians, and the tramline ending at Kolde Boulevard. The state is concerned that Tallinn will not be able to complete the tramline construction by the end of 2029.
If Tallinn does not meet the conditions or abandons the project, the funding will go to other projects. For example, bicycle paths or pedestrian tunnels. The state has a plan on how to use the funds if needed.
