The proposal to build a ring road around Estonia’s capital, Tallinn, is being evaluated. An environmental study has been carried out into the proposed project. The alignment suggested would connect Smuuli tee on the east side of the city with Peetri in the north west. The project would also include a 1km tunnel section running underneath the city’s international airport. Building the tunnel is expected to cost €100 million. The construction of the bypass is intended to reduce congestion in the centre of the city and also reduce the traffic volumes on the existing Tartu Highway. The project is being planned by the Estonian Transport Administration and a preliminary report into the proposal should be complete by early 2022.
