Partial traffic closure on Valtakatu from 16 to 19 November 2026 due to Christmas light installation
News
Valtakatu, located in the center of Rauma, will be partly closed to traffic from Monday to Thursday, 16–19 November 2026, due to Christmas light installation work. The closure affects the section between Nortamonkatu and Lyseokatu. Installation work will take place between 7.00 and 16.00. Outside of working hours, the street will be open as usual.
During the work, traffic from Nortamonkatu and Lyseokatu will not be able to turn onto Valtakatu. The Välikatu intersection will also be closed. Traffic arrangements may change as the work progresses.
People in the area are asked to exercise caution, follow temporary signs in the area, and allow a bit of extra travel time when needed.
Temporary changes to bus routes
The partial closure of Valtakatu will cause temporary changes to Rauma’s Gyyt public transport routes and stops. The following bus lines are affected:
- Line 1: Savila–Merirauma
- Line 2: Departures from Savila
- Line 3: Savila–Uusi-Lahti
These lines will follow a temporary detour route along Kuninkaankatu – Nortamonkatu – Karjalankatu – Luoteisväylä, after which they will return to their normal routes. Services arriving to Savila will operate as usual.
Bus stops Välikatu L and Myllymäenkatu L will be temporarily out of service.
Up-to-date routes, timetables, and available stops can be checked in the route planner.
