    Drilling and excavation works causing significant noise will take place on weekdays between 7:00 and 18:00.

 

Impact of blasting on traffic

Traffic will be temporarily stopped during blasting for safety reasons. The duration of traffic interruptions is a maximum of 8 minutes. Before each blast, an audible warning signal will be given in the area to indicate an upcoming blast.

 

Vibration monitoring

Vibrations caused by the excavation works are monitored on site by a consultant acting as an expert in blasting operations. Vibration meters will be installed in the surrounding area at locations determined by the consultant. The owners or operators of these properties have been contacted separately regarding the installation of the meters. Excavation of large rocks does not cause vibrations in the immediate surroundings.

We advise those moving in the area to allow extra time for travel. If properties in the surrounding area experience particularly disturbing indoor noise, you can send a message to ratikka@vantaa.fi, and we will provide hearing protection if necessary.

We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.
