The Imatrankoskentie overpass will be opened to traffic today, one month ahead of schedule. After the opening of the road, finishing works are carried out at the construction site. During the finishing works, there is a 30 km/h speed limit at the construction site in Imatrankoskentie.

The finishing works will be completed by the end of July 2022. 

- By the time of the Imatra races on the first weekend of July, the finishes of the Imatrankoskentie should be done. If work is in progress at that time, it will be done in such a way that the work has no effect on the event, says the site manager Toni Jauho From GRK Infra.

In the contract, a new Imatrankoskentie overpass was built and the old Imatrankoskentie overpass was demolished. A new bridge was built to replace the demolished Imatrankoskentie overpass. The contractor is the Finnish Railways Agency and the contractor is GRK Infra Oyj.
