liikennevirastoissa

Liikennevirastoissa refers to various transport agencies or authorities within Finland. Historically, the primary national body responsible for managing Finland's transport infrastructure was the Finnish Transport Agency (Finnish: Liikennevirasto), established in 2010. This agency was tasked with the development, maintenance, and operation of road, rail, and maritime transport networks. Its responsibilities included planning for future transport needs, ensuring the safety and efficiency of the infrastructure, and managing traffic flows. The Liikennevirasto also oversaw significant investment projects aimed at modernizing and expanding the country's transport systems.

In 2020, a significant restructuring occurred, leading to the dissolution of the Liikennevirasto. Its functions were largely absorbed by the newly formed Finnish Transport Infrastructure Agency (Väylävirasto), which continues the work of managing and developing state-owned road, rail, and bridge infrastructure. Other former responsibilities of the Liikennevirasto were transferred to new entities, such as Traficom, the Finnish Transport and Communications Agency, which handles licensing, regulation, and oversight of transport and communication services. Therefore, while "Liikennevirastoissa" might historically refer to the specific agency, in contemporary Finnish administrative context, its legacy is carried on by these successor organizations. The term, when used broadly, can encompass the collective set of governmental bodies responsible for transport in Finland.
