Traffic reorganisation at Tallinn's former hippodrome intersection from next week

Starting Tuesday, June 2, a new phase of reconstruction at the intersection near Tallinn's former hippodrome will partially redirect outbound traffic on Paldiski Highway to the opposite lane. The intersection will remain open, but drivers should expect more complex conditions and longer travel times.

From Tuesday, June 2, drivers in Tallinn will face altered traffic conditions near the former hippodrome intersection, as the next phase of reconstruction work gets underway. Outbound traffic on Paldiski Highway between Mooni Street and Merelaahe Street will be partially redirected onto the oncoming lane.

The intersection itself will remain open throughout the construction phase, meaning road users will not face a complete closure. However, authorities are warning that conditions will be significantly more complex than usual, and commuters should plan for longer journey times when passing through the area.

Drivers using Paldiski Highway to leave the city are advised to stay alert and follow road signs and markings carefully during this phase of the works. The reconstruction project is part of broader infrastructure improvements being carried out at the site of the former Tallinn hippodrome.
