Is there a tram in Turku?
The planned tram line and today's bus network.
Short answer
Föli's website says a 12-kilometre tramway will be built in Turku from Linnakaupunki to Varissuo via the city centre and Kupittaa. It will give residents a high-capacity public transport option as part of Föli services. Until then, public transport in Turku runs by bus. Föli renewed the Turku bus network with frequent trunk lines on 1 July 2025.
Why
- Föli gives 12 kilometres from Linnakaupunki to Varissuo.

Details
