Summer brings changes at Aalto University metro station
During the summer of 2024, Aalto University metro station will undergo modifications to improve safety. The works will close the metro entrances alternately in June and August.
During the summer, safety at Länsimetro metro stations will be improved by changing the fire alarm system and improving lighting. This will affect the entrances and access routes to the metro stations. The changes will not affect metro services or timetables.
