Traffic block days afoot

Watch out! This next Sunday, March 17, you won't be able to use your car in the area of Milan from 10 A.M. 'til 6 P.M.

The news released on...More......

...the city's web site (in Italian) includes fun stuff to do that day with the kids (Palazzo Marino and a "Tram full of surprises") and a reminder that one public transportation ticket is good all day on the busses, trams and metro, while the Mondoinformazione web site (in Italian) goes a step further, and notes that the car-free days in Milan (to combat pollution) have been scheduled (surprisingly wisely) with other activities, such as an upcoming marathon, so, here's the scoop:

March 17: Spring celebrations
April 7: Milan City Marathon
May 12: World bicycle day
June 9: schools and kids Sunday
July 14: Street artist Sunday
September 8: The European week of sustainable mobility
October 13: the 2nd national Walk Day (Deejay-Ten)
November 17: the beginning of the week, "Born to Walk"

Enjoy!
