Avoid unnecessary driving in the Town Hall Square
Cruise passengers are transported from Hamina's Hillo Harbour to Raatihuoneentori by bus, from where they have the opportunity to explore Hamina on foot. Tour buses also stop at Raatihuoneentori. There are therefore a lot of pedestrians in the area around the Town Hall, which should be taken into account, especially at Raatihuoneentori. There are no traffic closures on the weekend, but it is worth avoiding unnecessary driving through Raatihuoneentori and parking your cars in the parking area of Hamina Market Square or Rauhankatu, for example.
The cruise day program will be discussed in an open online meeting, Google Meet. Tue 27.5. from 8:8.30 to XNUMX:XNUMX.
