The Finnish seaport has recently added a 270 m long quay to Kallonlahti in the Mäntyluoto Harbour and rebuilt the 1959 oil pier in Tahkoluoto.

The investments totalled almost €30m, including €7.3m of support from the EU's Connecting Europe Facility.

The longer quay wall in Kallonlahti will serve, among others, the new concentrates terminal being constructed by Boliden.

In the Tahkoluoto Harbour, the pipelines were relocated from water onto land. The port authority says the modernisation here makes it possible to double liquid bulk traffic.

Soon, the Mäntyluoto Harbour will grow with a new ro-ro ramp (also to be used for military mobility following Finland's joining NATO).
