TAMPERE – WORKING TOGETHER FOR A BRIGHT FUTURE

The City of Tampere steers the future of its city centre in accordance with the City

Strategy 2025 entitled Tampere, Working Together for a Bright Future. In this

work, the most important tools are the city centre development programme and the

strategic master plan for the city centre, which are closely linked to each other.

TAMPERE CITY CENTRE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME 2015–2030

The City Board of Tampere approved the development programme at its meeting on

2 November 2015. The programme is the City of Tampere’s view of the future of the

centre’s city structure, cityscape, urban culture, and urban environment.

STRATEGIC MASTER PLAN FOR TAMPERE’S CITY CENTRE

The large-scale land-use and traffic solutions, which comply with the contents of the

city centre development programme, will be presented in the strategic master plan

for the city centre. The master plan proposal, which is in accordance with the Land

Use and Building Act, will be completed in 2015.

IMPLEMENTATION

A good urban environment is achieved in phases and through cooperation. The Five-

star City Centre is being built by the City of Tampere, real-estate owners, businesses,

communities, and inhabitants.

THE CITY MODEL ILLUSTRATES THE FUTURE

The future of the centre’s cityscape in 2030 is illustrated by a virtual

city model. It is one potential vision for the construction of the city

centre and not an actual or final plan. Details will be specified and

may be subject to change as planning progresses.

NEW ELEMENTS:

õ a deck across the railway zone and new, efficient construction;

õ new housing areas on the shores of Lake Näsijärvi and Lake Pyhäjärvi;

õ infill development of old business and housing blocks;

õ more pleasant market places, squares, yards, and streets;

õ shore routes have been created and the city shores are used by the city’s residents; and

õ the travel centre, the tramway, and modern city traffic.

Getting about in the city centre is planned in an all-

encompassing way, and primarily from the perspective

of the citizens and their needs. The measures for traffic

and transport emphasise the activities that improve

the city centre’s accessibility, public transport, the

quality corridors for the different modes of travel, and

the reduction of traffic in the epicentre.

IMPORTANT ASPECTS:

õ the city centre will be easily accessible by car and parking will be simple;

õ public transport, walking, and cycling will be the most comfortable ways of getting about;

õ smart-traffic systems and technological innovations will be in operation;

õ a good traffic environment will form part of the urban architecture and the city’s image; and

õ the best possible accessibility of the city centre and its key functions.

In the future, the tramway will be the most important and most visible means of public transport in the city centre. The street environments of Itsenäisyydenkatu, Hämeenkatu, Pirkankatu, and the other tramline streets in the city centre will also be developed as a high-quality environment for pedestrians and commercial services. The tramway will link the centre to the other city districts all the way to Hervanta and Lentävänniemi. Image: City of Tampere / visualisation of the city model by MY Architects Ltd, 2015.

In the future, the Tampere Travel and Service Centre will be a busy transport hub. In addition to the current railway station, the travel centre (whose architecture will be of a high quality) will also house a bus station and a new kind of shopping and service centre. The Travel and Service Centre and the Deck district will connect the city districts on the eastern and western sides of the railway tracks and make the city structure coherent.

Amongst Tampere city centre’s environmental

strengths are the waterbodies, the landscape, the

urban greenery, and the man-made urban green

environments. The green and recreational network will

be developed in an all-encompassing way and as part

of the city centre structure. The pleasant atmosphere

of the parks, the market places, the squares, the

pedestrian streets, and the public transport streets

will form the basis of the cityscape and of the

developing urban culture. Easily accessible sites for

sports activities, children’s play, pastimes, and nature

will strengthen the city centre’s attractiveness.

IMPORTANT ASPECTS:

õ unbroken shore routes;

õ recreational opportunities offered by the lakes and the shores;

õ accessibility of the outdoor areas of Pyynikki, Kauppi, and Iidesjärvi;

õ versatile sports environments and recreational services;

õ the market places, the squares, the street spaces, and the parks as image and identity factors;

õ the pleasant atmosphere, vibrancy, and sensory experiences; and

In the future, Tampere will boast unbroken public routes running along all of the shorelines in the city centre. On Nalkala Shore and in the other parts of the epicentre, the shore routes will be urban recreational routes. The shore routes will continue for long distances outside of the city centre. There are also recreational areas in Pyynikki, Kauppi and Iidesjärvi, close to the city centre.

areas, cultural destinations, and sports facilities will

be developed systematically. They will be integrated

into the cityscape, city structure, and urban culture.

Premises, outdoor spaces, and structures will be

multifunctional and modifiable. Urban events

will enliven pedestrian areas in particular. The

requirements of major events will be considered in

the planning of services and the environment. In

the organisation of events, a balance will be struck

between the needs of the organisers, participants,

entrepreneurs, residents, and tourists.

IMPORTANT ASPECTS:

õ the city centre milieu and a distinctive image;

õ strengths as the centre of a tourism destination;

The multifunctional arena to be constructed on top of the railway tracks will be the most significant new event venue in the centre of Tampere. In the future, the Arena will host large cultural and sports events. It is expected to attract nearly a million visitors a year, significantly enhancing the economy and street life in the city centre. The Arena will open up new business opportunities in the fields of service production and tourism. The location next to the Travel and Service Centre ensures excellent public transport connections.

In future, the lakeside city of Tampere will be internationally unique. Ranta-Tampella is the next new housing area to be constructed in the city centre. The apartments and shorelines in the district will offer magnificent views of Lake Näsijärvi. The shore routes will provide access to the city centre, Särkänniemi Amusement Park, recreational forest areas, swimming beaches, boat harbours, and ice sports routes. The construction of the area, which is free of traffic noise, will start immediately once Rantaväylä tunnel has been completed.

In future, the centre of Tampere will be a diverse,

flexible, and quantitatively significant job and

expertise cluster in the Tampere Central Region,

Tampere Region, and the developing rail traffic zones

of Southern Finland. The urban environment will be

developed so that the city centre becomes a functional

working environment that is easy to reach from various

distances. The needs of business operators and

opportunities offered by the area to the business and

industrial sector are considered in the development

of the cityscape and urban culture of the city centre.
