Fintraffic road traffic centres operate 26 road and urban tunnels throughout Finland. The safety-critical nature of tunnels differs from that of the rest of the traffic environment, which is why ensuring uniform and safe operating methods is particularly important when working with tunnels. This has been addressed in the development of Fintraffic's road traffic management, and in recent years, for the first time ever a new training and testing method has been developed in Finland for the qualification of professionals working with tunnels. What is tunnel competence? How has the tunnel competence pilot progressed and what are the next steps?

A traffic survey conducted by Fintraffic reveals concern about climate change reflected in the attitudes Finns have towards transport. A clear majority strives to take environmental issues into account in their driving habits, but also before getting behind the wheel. Economical driving and avoiding unnecessary driving are among the most popular ways to consider the environment in traffic. People are also interested in cycling or walking in their daily life.
