Background information

The facilities of the Postipuu school and day care centre will be expanded to meet the needs of the growing population. The aim of the town planning is to use the plots more efficiently. The primary objective of the Premises Department is a joint project, in which the plots are joined and the functions are placed in the same building. The walking and cycling connections as well as the Kirkkalanoja streaming water area that crosses the area are taken into account in the planning.
