Helsinki Port Tunnel

First, news about Helsinki’s big tunnel decision.

Helsinki is building a tunnel in the West Harbour.

The Helsinki City Council decided on the construction on Wednesday.

The tunnel will be 2 kilometers long. The tunnel runs from the port of Jätkäsaari to the Länsiväylä motorway.

The aim is to ease traffic to the port. The heavy truck traffic in particular is currently disturbing the residents of Jätkäsaari.

The tunnel will cost approximately 300 million euros.

In the Helsinki City Council, the tunnel was supported by the National Coalition Party and the Social Democratic Party. The tunnel was opposed by the Left and the Greens.

Construction of the tunnel will begin in 2028.

Foster parents

Now news about foster parenting.

Foster children are sometimes transferred to a new placement too quickly.

For example, family caregivers are not always heard enough. This can happen when a child is urgently transferred to a new foster care placement.

Complaints about the transfers have been made to regional administrative agencies and have also been processed in administrative courts.

Foster children are sometimes transferred to a new placement too quickly.

The National Institute for Health and Welfare says that rapid transfers are made for the sake of the child.

The reason may be, for example, mistreatment of the child or exhaustion of the family caregiver.

If you are in a hurry, consulting a family nurse can be postponed. This is according to Johanna Hedman, Head of Development at THL.

“If there is a situation where you need to act really quickly, it may not be possible at that moment.”

Sibelius Museum

Finally, cultural news.

The Sibelius Museum has acquired the world’s largest private Jean Sibelius collection.

The collection includes letters, sheet music, photographs and other documents from composer Jean Sibelius.

The collection contains a total of approximately 240 items.

The Sibelius Museum in Turku has acquired the world’s largest private Jean Sibelius collection.

The collection was previously owned by the Italian Rolando Pieraccini.
