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,

THE CITY MODEL ILLUSTRATES THE FUTURE
The future of the centre’s cityscape in 2030 is illustrated by a virtual

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.
TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORT
SET OF MEASURES 1
FIVE-STAR CITY CENTRE – TAMPERE CITY CENTRE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME 2015–2030, SUMMARY8
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.

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
õ historical parks and urban green areas.
