Traffic between Satamakatu and Hämeenpuisto will be stopped from 17:00 on 9 November to about 07:00 on 10 November while Tampereen Energia repairs a leaking district-heating pipe.

Tamperelainen reports that traffic will be stopped between Satamakatu and Hämeenpuisto for about 14 hours from 17:00 on Monday while crews repair a leaking district-heating pipe. Tampereen Energia begins the work at 17:00 on 9 November and expects the closure to end around 07:00 on 10 November.

Traffic on both sides of Hämeenpuisto will otherwise flow normally. The busy westbound link from Hämeenpuisto onto Satamakatu will be closed during the repair.

Motorists can either turn left onto Pyhäjärvenkatu and follow Papinkatu to Satamakatu, or continue along Hämeenpuisto to Puutarhakatu to rejoin the other side. Tampereen Energia recommends the Puutarhakatu route for heavy vehicles such as trucks and buses because Papinkatu is narrow.

The repair follows earlier planned district-heating maintenance that affected central Tampere properties previous planned district-heating repairs in October.
