Port’s new rail connection via Pahaniemi
Turku City Board made a decision of principle on 6 June 2022 on the building of the port rail connection. In the approved proposal, the railway tracks to the port and the new joint passenger terminal would approach from the direction of Pahaniemi district. The new alignment would go along the northern route past the current Auriga building and to the vicinity of the new joint terminal.
The rough cost estimate for the new rail connection to the port is 18 million euros, and the construction will take at least five years.
