Master planning / Planning review 2025
Regional land use plan
The planning system has three levels: regional land use plan, local master plan and local detailed plan. The regional land use plan is the most general of these plans. It serves as a guide for municipal and other land use planning.
The legally valid Helsinki-Uusimaa Regional Land Use Plan 2050 (Uusimaa 2050 Plan) will be complemented by Uusimaa’s fifth phased regional land use plan, called VISIO, Innovative Green Transition. The phased regional land use plan will complement the Uusimaa 2050 Plan with themes of green transition, such as energy, circular economy and carbon sequestration. The preliminary plan is to put the goals of the phased regional land use plan and the participation and assessment plan on display in early 2025. A draft plan will be drawn up in 2025, and the aim is for it to put on display in early 2026.
Master plan
A master plan guiding the construction of Vantaa for decades to come entered into force in early 2023. Master Plan 2020 enables the city’s growth, guiding it to the current urban structure by way of integration and renewal. Growth will focus on urban centres, securing large green areas and cultural landscapes.
Implementation plan for the master plan
The planning and guidance work for the implementation of the master plan will continue in 2025. The themes are: housing construction and service network, areas of houses, green network, businesses and commercial management and traffic network. The maintenance of the plan will be ongoing and connected to the detailed planning.
Petas–Piispankylä
The operation of the Ring Rail Line requires a new train depot as commuter trains will be moved away from the Ilmala depot. A train depot has not been allocated in the 2020 master plan. The placement of the depot will require a partial master plan and a detailed plan. The partial master planning work will start with the preparation of a participation and assessment plan in 2025.
Report on commercial areas
The report assesses the current situation, dimensioning and development prospects of the commercial areas. The aim is also to examine the operations and retail concepts suitable for the areas and the importance of the commercial areas in the retail service network, including traffic perspectives and accessibility of the areas.
Further report and development image for Kiila–Kiertola
As a follow-up to the Kiila–Ruotsinkylä circular economy area report, or Kiila–Kiertola report (2023), a research project has been launched with the EU’s green transition support to develop a joint impact assessment of the area.
Preparations will also be initiated to prepare a joint development image of Vantaa and Tuusula for the area, which would not be a legally binding plan project, but rather a work supporting more detailed planning to which the different parties commit themselves.
Evaluation and strengthening of green structure in cities’ land use planning (ARVO project)
The primary objective of the ARVO project is to strengthen the green structure in densely built cities. This will promote their ability to prepare for and adapt to climate change. ARVO is a cooperation project co-funded by the European Union. The project will be concluded at the end of 2025.
Economic impact assessment of areas of houses
The report, which is prepared as consultancy work, examines the urban economic impacts of areas of houses in selected target areas. In addition to planning economy, the report will also look at the vitality and attractiveness of living in houses. The consultancy work will be carried out as a joint project by the cities of the Metropolitan Area.
No Net Loss model
The No Net Loss model will help to safeguard biodiversity in the growing city. The model guides land use planning to effectively implement the mitigation hierarchy and to adopt ecological compensation for lost natural values.
Development plan for green spaces in the centre of south Kivistö
The plan will help to ensure that there is adequate space for both the ecological network and the green area service network.
