However, the Helsinki-side section of the road up to Ring III has later been widened to four lanes, but the beginning of Vihdintie in Etelä-Haaga from Mannerheimintie to Haaga roundabout is street-like.

[3] Significant commercial centers along Vihdintie include the Ristikko Shopping Centre in the Konala district.

[1] As the road was quite hilly, winding and full of visual obstacles, it was no longer considered to meet the requirements of the highway in the 1960s.

[1][5] Therefore, the new alignment of Highway 2 leading to Pori was built in the 1970s at a higher level.
