Drilling and Rock Excavation Site and Schedule
Effects of Blasting Operations
For safety reasons, traffic on Kyytitie and Lahdentie will be temporarily stopped during blasting operations. Traffic interruptions will last for a maximum of eight minutes.
Before each blast, an audible warning signal will be given in the area to alert people of the upcoming detonation.
Vibration Monitoring
Vibrations caused by the rock excavation works will be monitored by a consultant specializing in blasting operations. Vibration meters will be installed at locations in the surrounding area determined by the consultant. Property owners and operators of the affected sites have been contacted separately regarding the installation of the monitoring equipment.
We encourage people travelling through the area to allow extra time for their journeys due to temporary traffic interruptions. If particularly disturbing indoor noise is experienced in nearby properties, please contact us at viestinta@vantaa.fi. Hearing protection can be provided if necessary.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience and understanding.
