The access barrier posts located at the top of Matinkylä metro station’s escalators will be moved overnight between Thursday and Friday, 23–24 April.
The work will start in the early evening on Thursday with preparatory work. The installation work will take place once metro traffic ends, so as not to inconvenience commuters.
The escalators at the Matinkylä metro station change direction according to commuter flows. Previously, every time the direction changed, the access barrier posts had to be moved. The barrier post installations will eliminate the need to move the posts when the direction of the escalators changes, thereby facilitating both the change in direction of the escalators and the flow of commuters.
