Finnish national road 67
The Finnish national road 67 is the 2nd class main route from Kaskinen to Nurmo, which belongs to Seinäjoki. The road is 115 kilometers long and is mainly two-lane, except for the center of Seinäjoki, where the road is four-lane. The road is for the most part of good quality, in some places even highway, and its traffic volumes are quite variable.
History
In the 1938 numbering system, main road 67 ran between Kristianstad and Nykarleby. The route was improved and straightened between the 1960s and 1980s. The northern end was shortened to Ytterjeppo in the late 1960s. In 1971, the southern end was realigned to Närpiö. In the 1996 road number reform, the main road section between Seinäjoki and Ytterjeppo was changed to Highway 19 and main road 67 was shortened to end at Seinäjoki. At the same time, however, the road continued from its western end to continue to Kaskinen. In 2017, the section from Seinäjoki to Nurmo returned to main road 67 when Highway 19 was rerouted onto the Seinäjoki eastern bypass.Route
