Kirkkonummi – from village to city
Kirkkonummi is the second largest municipality in Finland that is not a city
.Now is the time to consider whether the municipality should develop its regional centers according to city principles.
What this means in practice:
Dense housing around stations
As a rule, high-rise construction should be planned near major public transport stations. No more apartment buildings in forests and far from services.
Strengthening municipal centers creates a population base for services
The more residents there are, the more likely it is that services will be located close to them. Strengthening municipal centers enables more efficient public transportation.
Local recreation areas around municipal centers, parks inside
There must be greenery and greenery in municipal centers. It is very important that the journey to the local recreational forest or park is not arduous.

My goals
- Speeding up planning and steering it in a sensible direction
- ”Half-hour train”, i.e. rails at least between Hista – Veikkola – Nummela for commuting traffic
- Strengthening the vitality of the station areas of the coastal railway
- Replacing traffic light intersections with roundabouts
- Kehä III to 2+2 lanes as soon as possible
- Generally raising the level of traffic planning
- At least one free hobby for every young person
- Securing and improving library services
- Providing senior housing
- Strengthening local employment possibilities
- People living alone should be better taken into account in decision-making
