Italy: 1 scheme to know about before you drive in.
Bagnara di Romagna 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?

Bagnara di Romagna closes its historic 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 FIRST ORDER IN THE EMILIA-ROMAGNA PLAIN FAMILY THAT DEFINES ITS ZONE AS AN ENCLOSED PERIMETER RATHER THAN AS A LIST OF ROADS, and the difference changes the answer a driver gets. Point 7 delimits the area by naming just TWO streets — via G.
Matteotti and viale G. Garibaldi — as the perimeter, and excludes the parking bays on them. Bagnacavallo named thirty-two roads and its map coloured the carriageways; Alfonsine named five.
Here the map draws a single closed red ring around the walled centre, so the streets INSIDE the ring are in the zone even though the order never names one of them. 🚨 AND THE MAP CARRIES NO LEGEND AT ALL — no key, no title block, no scale, no north arrow, no date and no signature.
The red line's meaning rests entirely on the ordinance's words, which is why this record watches those words rather than the drawing. 🚨 Like its three measured neighbours in the Unione dei Comuni della Bassa Romagna, 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.
