The construction of some of the expansions listed below as trolleybus lines was studied in a 2009 report by Helsinki City Transport, but the city decided to drop the trolleybus plans for the foreseeable future in 2011.

Famous quotes containing the words planned, extension and/or network:
“And the LORD changed his mind about the disaster that he planned to bring on his people.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 32:14.
“The medium is the message. This is merely to say that the personal and social consequences of any medium—that is, of any extension of ourselves—result from the new scale that is introduced into our affairs by each extension of ourselves, or by any new technology.”
—Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
“A culture may be conceived as a network of beliefs and purposes in which any string in the net pulls and is pulled by the others, thus perpetually changing the configuration of the whole. If the cultural element called morals takes on a new shape, we must ask what other strings have pulled it out of line. It cannot be one solitary string, nor even the strings nearby, for the network is three-dimensional at least.”
—Jacques Barzun (b. 1907)
