Italy: 1 scheme to know about before you drive in.
Bagnacavallo has one driving restriction on our books: the Piano Aria Integrato Regionale (PAIR 2030) — provvedimenti temporanei… (low emission zone). What is a low emission zone?
Sources last read on 2026-09-30, from the authorities' own pages. The next scheduled check is 2026-12-30.
Bagnacavallo closes its town centre to older vehicles for the winter season, Monday to Friday 08:30–18:30 from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. Banned: petrol, LPG/petrol and methane/petrol cars up to Euro 2; diesel cars up to Euro 4; mopeds and motorcycles up to Euro 2. 🔑 THIS IS THE BEST-DOCUMENTED PERIMETER IN THE WHOLE EMILIA-ROMAGNA PLAIN FAMILY, AND IT IS DOCUMENTED TWICE OVER.
Point 1 identifies the area by the attached planimetry, Allegato n. 1, and point 7 then names THIRTY-TWO streets and squares that make it up — where Alfonsine named five and Bagnolo in Piano, Soliera and Vignola named none.
The map is also the first in this family that is simply legible: a street plan with the restricted roads drawn in yellow, a printed legend reading AREA SOGGETTA A LIMITAZIONE and seven numbered entry points. ⚠️ It is still a picture rather than geometry, so this record cites it and states no shape of its own. 🚨 And like Alfonsine, the order prints NO money for driving in: it cites article 7 comma 13 bis of the Highway Code and stops.
The fine on this record is null rather than a figure borrowed from a neighbouring town.
