These structures are common features along tram lines in Finnish cities, providing passengers with protection from the elements while they wait for their tram. The design of raitiopysäkkitake can vary, from simple, open-sided shelters with a roof to more enclosed structures offering greater protection from wind and rain.

Materials commonly used in their construction include metal frames, glass panels, and durable roofing materials.
