New daycare centers in Vantaanlaakso, Vaarala and Myyrmäki
In its meeting on September 22, the Vantaa City Executive Board decided to submit the alterations to the local detailed plan for the daycare centers at Lounaniitty in Vantaanlaakso, Talkootie in Vaarala and Louhela in Myyrmäki for the city council’s approval.
A new daycare center lot is needed in Vantaanlaakso, as the current daycare center is too small and is located in the flight and road noise impact area near Hämeenlinnanväylä. The alteration to the local detailed plan turns some of Lounaniitty’s areas for local outdoor recreation and allotment gardens into a block for public buildings, some into a block for small houses and some into street areas.
The plan alteration for Talkootie, Vaarala, enables the realization of a new daycare center. The planning particularly takes into account pleasantness and the quality of the local environment, including roadmap objectives for resource smartness, green efficiency objectives and storm water management, among others. When realized, the daycare center will respond to the increase in the number of children of early childhood education age and the resulting need for services.
The daycare center lot in Louhela, Myyrmäki at Eräkuja 3 will be extended to the north in such a way that it will fit a daycare center for 8 groups, later for 10 groups once expanded. The older daycare center currently located in the area will be preserved, and the newer relocatable wooden daycare center will be moved from the lot. At the same time, the sports field on the north side of the expanded daycare center lot will become part of Jokiuomanpuisto.
