Rescue Exercise in Myllypuro on 6 May – emergency vehicle traffic in the area

Helsinki City Rescue Department will conduct a major accident rescue exercise in Myllypuro in cooperation with other authorities on Wednesday, 6 May 2026.

During the exercise day, there will be vehicles from the Rescue Department, the Police, and the Defence Forces, as well as other participants involved in the exercise, moving around the Myllypuro area. The exercise area will be marked with signs. The public will not be able to observe the exercise.

Training for accident situations is part of regular official preparedness activities, ensuring readiness and cooperation between multiple authorities in various emergency scenarios.

The exercise will not limit movement in the area, except for the Stadin AO campus on Runokylänkatu. The campus was selected as the training site for a major accident due to its sufficient size and accessibility. The Lallukankuja bus stop, number H4489, will be out of service on 6 May from 8:00 to 16:00.
