Velkua route - 05.01.2026 18:09

Updated 30.1.2026

Starting from 6.1.2026 the commuter ferry Kaita will not operate to Tammisluoto and Liettinen due to ice formation.

At the same time the traffic will switch to the frost heaving schedule, meaning all routes will first go via Rauhala to avoid breaking the ice cover at Palvanaukko. This may cause changes to travel times, especially for the first departure of the day.

Starting from 30.1.2026, the traffic to Kettumaa will be suspended until further notice due to the ice conditions.
