Bus connections

Bus connections from Rauma to the Helsinki region, to the central cities of the neighbouring provinces and elsewhere in Finland are excellent. The regional ticket system that covers almost the whole province makes travelling inexpensive even on a daily basis. The system has clearly increased passenger volumes. In Rauma, local bus services are provided by Oras Liikenne Oy and Satakunnan Liikenne Oy.

Ferry traffic

Car ferries running between Turku and Stockholm provide an inexpensive and pleasant way to travel to and from Sweden. The two ferry companies, Silja Line and Viking Line both have morning and evening departures from Turku and Stockholm, and the ferries are used both for passenger car traffic and for heavy traffic. Public connecting services are excellent both in Finland and in Sweden. Cruises are also a popular form of free-time entertainment. Express buses run directly from Rauma to the ferry terminals in Turku. In addition to the car ferries, there are regular cargo ship lines from Turku and Uusikaupunki to Sweden and Germany.

Rail traffic

The track network of Tampere/Pori – Rauma has been renovated and electrified and at present, ca. 60% of the export shipments through the Port of Rauma, are transported to Rauma by rail. Passenger traffic from Rauma is organised by a bus service from the VR terminal on Karjalankatu Street in Rauma to the train service in Kokemäki. Buses provide a connecting service to the trains so there is no waiting time in Kokemäki.
