on December 4, no cars in the (new) green band
Ecological Sunday in Rome. On 4 December in the city in the new green strip, a total traffic ban for private traffic will be in place (with some exceptions) starting from 7.30 to 12.30 and from 16.30 to 20.30.
All petrol vehicles up to the Euro 5 environmental class will stop. The blocked diesel vehicles will instead be those up to Euro 6. Also stop motorcycles and 4-stroke two-wheeled mopeds prior, respectively, to the Euro 3 and Euro 2 environmental classes . December 4th will be the last ecological Sunday of 2022. Then, next year, there will be the blocks of January 8th, February 5th and March 26th.
The new green band
With a recent resolution by the Gualtieri council, the green band was also changed [qui la mappa]. Changes not without controversy. No changes for the south and east quadrants of the city. The boundaries of the Green Band along via Palmiro Togliatti, via Appia Nuova and via Ardeatina remain unchanged, with the Torricola area included in the limited traffic zone.
