The new passenger terminal and associated passenger bridges of the Ferry Terminal Turku project have been granted a building permit, marking a significant milestone for the project. The permit was issued by the Turku City Building and Permit Committee at their meeting on Thursday, October 10th.

Construction of the terminal is set to begin at the start of 2025, with an estimated completion date in 2027. Tallink Silja will start using the terminal as soon as it is completed, and Viking Line will follow once the work on the second pier is finished in 2027.

11 November 2020 at 05.45 will see the first trip to Odden with Molslinjen’s fast ferry EXPRESS 3, starting from the new ferry terminal at Østhavnen in Aarhus. It marks the culmination of several years of construction work.

The trip also marks a shift in the local traffic in Aarhus. The 1.5 million annual motorists will enter the port faster via a better connection between motorway and terminal.

In the city of Aarhus alone, the signage towards the ferry port must be changed in more than 50 places.
