🚨 There is exactly one rule in this timetable and that is the finding, not an omission. This order names no ecological Sundays and imposes no emergency circulation measures, so Saturday, Sunday and alert days carry no ban. Most orders in this family have two or three rules here. No timetable may be copied from one town to another.
A Euro 5 diesel is lawful in Baricella on every day of the season. That is not true at Formigine, Castenaso, Maranello or Piacenza.
🚨 This timetable is narrower than the order. Point 1 excludes public holidays as a class — "festivi esclusi" — before it names any particular feast, and only the six named feasts can be put in a calendar. A public holiday that is not on that list may also be outside the ban; the six entries here are the ones the order states.
The emergency article is real and has two limbs, but neither reaches a vehicle: the Arpae bulletin for the Province of Bologna triggers a livestock-slurry ban and a wood-biomass heating ban.
Strike days are not in this timetable: the order suspends the ban on any day of a local public transport strike, and those are called at short notice.
⚠️ This timetable is a clock and it cannot carry this order's most important limit, which is spatial: the ban applies on nine named roads in three settlements, not across the town. A vehicle on the banned list can be entirely lawful at every hour in this table.
🚨 Nor can it carry the gap in the order itself: Passo Segni is named in the ban and omitted from the article that delimits it. See the area.
Operating times only, read from the source below. It does not check your vehicle.
Baricella closes named streets in five of its built-up areas to older vehicles for the winter half of the year, from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. Monday to Friday, public holidays excluded, 08:30 to 18:30, the ban catches petrol cars up to and including Euro 2, LPG/petrol and methane/petrol up to and including Euro 2, diesel cars up to and including Euro 4, and mopeds and motorcycles up to and including Euro 2.
Nothing is on sale: there is no day ticket, no charge and no payable derogation. The fine is set by national law and the order states it, a range of €168 to €679, with fifteen to thirty days' licence suspension for a repeat offence within two years. 🔑 THIS IS THE FIRST ORDER IN THIS FAMILY THAT SAYS WHERE THE EDGE IS IN WORDS A DRIVER CAN USE.
Point 7 lists the restricted roads one by one — via Giovannini, via Roma, via Marconi, via Bianchetta, via Sant'Anna and via Bocche in Baricella itself; via Savena Vecchia at San Gabriele-Mondonuovo; via Savena Abbandonata and via Bernardi at Boschi. Soliera refers to an unpublished plan, Bagnolo in Piano to nothing at all, and Vignola to a drawing that cannot be read.
This order names streets. 🚨 BUT IT NAMES FIVE SETTLEMENTS IN POINT 1 AND ONLY THREE IN POINT 7, AND THE MISSING ONE IS A REAL GAP RATHER THAN A TYPOGRAPHICAL ONE. Point 1 restricts "le aree dei centri abitati di Baricella, San Gabriele, Mondonuovo, Boschi, Passo Segni".
Point 7, which exists precisely to identify those areas, covers Baricella, San Gabriele-Mondonuovo and Boschi.
Passo Segni appears in the ban and never again. ⚠️ This record does not resolve that and must not: a reader in Passo Segni is inside a ban whose own delimiting article does not reach them. 🔑 MOVE-IN EXEMPTS AN ENROLLED VEHICLE HERE — the opposite of Bagnolo in Piano, published seven days earlier on the same Arpae index, where the scheme appears only in the recitals.
And like its neighbours this order names no ecological Sundays and imposes no emergency vehicle ban, so a Euro 5 diesel is lawful on every day of the season.
Comune di Baricella (BO) — Ordinanza Sindacale n. 9/2026 del 28/09/2026, signed digitally by the Mayor, Omar Mattioli, and published by Arpae Emilia-Romagna, the regional agency that collects the implementing ordinances of the municipalities bound by the PAIR 2030
Nothing is charged and nothing is on sale. The order bans the listed classes from the streets it names and then lists the vehicles and journeys that are exempt; there is no day ticket, no registration fee and no payable derogation a visitor could buy.
The one route by which a banned vehicle can be authorised is Move-In, the regional telematics scheme, which fits a black box and allows a monitored annual mileage allowance instead of a flat prohibition, on the terms of Annexes A, B and C to regional decision DGR n. 1493 of 22/09/2025 as applied here "come disposto dall'ordinanza n.
20/2025". 🚨 THAT IT IS AVAILABLE AT ALL IS THE FINDING, BECAUSE THE NEAREST ORDER PUBLISHED IN THE SAME WEEK DOES NOT OFFER IT. Move-In is operative exemption letter d) of point 8 here.
At Bagnolo in Piano, seven days earlier on the same Arpae index, the scheme is named four times in the preamble and never once after the word ORDINA — so an enrolled driver is exempt in Baricella and banned in Bagnolo in Piano, under one regional scheme, in one season. 🔑 The positional test that separates recital from command (D-334) is what distinguishes them, and it has to be run on every order in this family rather than inferred from any other.
Its reach here is the wide one: letter d) excludes Move-In vehicles from the point 1 ban "nel rispetto delle caratteristiche del servizio" and attaches none of the "solo relativamente alle limitazioni strutturali" narrowing that Formigine and Castenaso use.
The preamble does recite the regional caveat, that Move-In does not allow enrolled vehicles to circulate when emergency circulation measures are active or on ecological Sundays, "ove adottate con specifica ordinanza". ⚠️ Read against this order the caveat has nothing to bite on: Baricella adopts no ecological Sunday, and its emergency article imposes no circulation limitation.
Move-In is in any case a scheme for vehicles registered in the participating regions rather than something a foreign visitor can buy on arrival, and neither the order nor the regional decision states a price in the documents read here, so none is given.
Seasonal, and the season had not yet begun when this was read. The ban runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. Monday to Friday the window is 08:30 to 18:30. 🔑 AND THIS ORDER ADDS THREE WORDS NO OTHER IN THE FAMILY USES: "festivi esclusi".
Point 1 reads "dal lunedì al venerdì, festivi esclusi, dalle 8.30 alle 18.30" — public holidays are excluded as a class, before any particular feast is named.
Its siblings suspend only the days they list. ⚠️ The practical effect is wider than the list that follows and this record does not narrow it: a public holiday falling on a weekday is outside the ban here whether or not it is one of the six the order goes on to name. 🚨 THERE IS NO SUNDAY RULE.
Point 1 is the only article in the order that names a vehicle, and it names Monday to Friday. "Domeniche ecologiche" appears once in the whole document, in the preamble, recounting what regional decision DGR 1493/2025 says Move-In does not cover. This order is not that specific ordinance.
Saturday and Sunday carry no ban at all. 🚫 DO NOT CARRY A NEIGHBOUR'S CALENDAR HERE. Formigine names nineteen ecological Sundays with December empty; Castenaso names twenty-three including all four December Sundays; Piacenza names twenty; Maranello names none and instead declares every Sunday of the season closed.
Vignola, Soliera, Bagnolo in Piano and this order have none at all. 🚨 NOR IS THERE AN EMERGENCY CIRCULATION BAN, though the machinery for one is fully built. Point 6 sets up the familiar trigger: the Arpae bulletin issued on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, measured for the territory of the Province of Bologna, the measures running from the day after the bulletin until the next control day inclusive.
It then lists exactly two measures, 6.1 a prohibition on spreading livestock slurry and 6.2 a prohibition on wood-biomass domestic heating below the five-star class. No vehicle appears under either.
THE NAMED SUSPENDED DAYS ARE SIX: 1 November, 8 December, Christmas Day, St Stephen's Day, New Year's Day and Epiphany, plus any day of a local public transport strike. ⚠️ Four of the six can actually do something, because the ban only runs Monday to Friday.
Checked against the calendar on 2026-09-30: 8 December 2026 is a Tuesday, Christmas Day a Friday, 1 January 2027 a Friday and Epiphany a Wednesday; 1 November 2026 is a Sunday and St Stephen's Day a Saturday. ⚠️ TWO ABSENCES ARE WORTH NAMING.
There is no patron saint's day, and there is no Easter: Bagnolo in Piano suspends both Easter Sunday and Easter Monday, and Easter Monday, 29 March 2027, is a working Monday inside this season too. 🔑 Whether "festivi esclusi" reaches it instead is a question this order raises and does not answer, and this record does not answer it either.
Comune di Baricella (BO) — Ordinanza Sindacale n. 9/2026 del 28/09/2026: point 1 for the season, the weekday window, the "festivi esclusi" clause, the suspended days and the strike clause, point 6 for the emergency article, and the preamble for the sole mention of ecological Sundays
FIVE built-up areas are banned and THREE are delimited, and the gap between those two numbers is the most important thing on this page.
Point 1 restricts "le aree dei centri abitati di Baricella, San Gabriele, Mondonuovo, Boschi, Passo Segni come individuati dalla DGC n.102 del 18/12/2018" — five settlements, identified by a council resolution of 18 December 2018. 🔑 POINT 7 THEN DOES SOMETHING NO OTHER ORDER IN THIS FAMILY DOES: IT NAMES THE STREETS.
"Le aree del centro abitato del Comune di Baricella in cui si applica il divieto di circolazione di cui al punto 1 sono di seguito individuate" — and then, for Baricella itself: via Giovannini from the start of the built-up area to the junction with via Roma; via Roma from the junction with via Giovannini to the junction with via Bianchetta; via Marconi; via Bianchetta; via Sant'Anna; and via Bocche.
For San Gabriele-Mondonuovo: via Savena Vecchia. For Boschi: via Savena Abbandonata and via Bernardi. ⚠️ Read literally this is not an area at all but a set of road segments — which is arguably more useful to a driver than a polygon, because it is what a driver actually meets. 🚨 AND PASSO SEGNI IS NOT THERE.
It is named in the ban at point 1 and never appears in point 7, the article whose entire purpose is to identify the areas point 1 restricts. 🚫 THIS RECORD DOES NOT RESOLVE THAT, AND THE REASONS FOR NOT RESOLVING IT ARE WORTH STATING.
Either reading is defensible from the document — that the ban covers Passo Segni and the delimitation simply omits it, or that the ban reaches only what point 7 identifies — and the two readings put a driver in opposite positions. Nothing in the order chooses between them, and the council resolution point 1 cites is not published on the publisher's page.
A visitor driving a banned vehicle through Passo Segni should assume the ban applies, because that is the reading the order's own point 1 states. ⚠️ NO GEOMETRY IS PUBLISHED. The delimiting instrument, DGC n.
102 of 18/12/2018, is cited but not served: Arpae's sub-page for Baricella carries exactly one file, the ordinance. The ordinance PDF contains no map — scripts/pdf-images.py finds exactly one image object in fourteen pages and it was written out and looked at rather than assumed (D-339): it is the Comune's wordmark, the name set over its own mirrored reflection above the line "Città metropolitana di Bologna".
So the street names are all a reader gets, and they are enough to stand on and not enough to draw. 🔑 One thing the order does settle is which territory the duty comes from: the preamble records that the Comune "è ubicato nella zona Pianura Est", the eastern-plain zone covered by the Court of Justice judgment of 10 November 2020, and is bound to implement the PAIR 2030 measures on that footing.
Comune di Baricella (BO) — Ordinanza Sindacale n. 9/2026 del 28/09/2026, point 1 for the five settlements and the delimiting resolution, point 7 for the street-by-street delimitation of three of them, and the preamble for the Pianura Est zoning
Petrol cars of Euro 0, Euro 1 and Euro 2 are banned — "veicoli alimentati a benzina EURO 0, EURO 1 ed EURO 2, non conformi alla direttiva 98/69/A CE e successive" — so a petrol car needs to be Euro 3 or better. Bi-fuel vehicles running on LPG/petrol or methane/petrol are banned up to and including Euro 2.
Mopeds and motorcycles are banned up to and including Euro 2. ⚠️ THE BI-FUEL LINE CITES A DIFFERENT DIRECTIVE FROM THE REST OF THE FAMILY, AND THE PUBLISHER'S OWN TEXT IS ALSO SHORT A WORD. It reads "veicoli alimentati a GPL/benzina o metano/benzina 0, EURO 1 ed EURO 2, non conformi alla direttiva 91/542/CEE St II e successive o alla direttiva 94/12/CE e successive".
The first class is printed as a bare "0" with no "EURO" in front of it, and the directives named are 91/542/CEE and 94/12/CE where Soliera, Vignola and Bagnolo in Piano all name 98/69/A CE for the same vehicles. 🔑 Both forms are preserved as printed (D-261): the threshold a driver needs is unaffected — Euro 0, 1 and 2 are banned either way — and this record does not repair a publisher's citation. ⚠️ THE TWO-WHEELER LINES ARE PRINTED TWICE AND THE FIRST OF THEM CARRIES A DOUBLED WORD.
The order lists "ciclomotori e motocicli EURO 0, EURO 1 ed EURO 2 non conformi alla direttiva direttiva 2003/77/CE e successive" and then, on the next indent, "motocicli EURO 0, EURO 1 ed EURO 2 non conformi alla direttiva 2003/77/CE e successive" — motorcycles twice, and mopeds folded into the motorcycle directive. 🔑 Its siblings put mopeds under Directive 2013/60/EC and motorcycles under 2003/77/EC on separate lines.
Again the threshold is unaffected: Euro 0 to Euro 2 on two wheels is banned under every reading.
Comune di Baricella (BO) — Ordinanza Sindacale n. 9/2026 del 28/09/2026, point 1, the indents of the sole vehicle list
Diesel cars are banned up to and including Euro 4 — "veicoli diesel EURO 0, EURO 1, EURO 2, EURO 3 ed EURO 4 non conformi alla direttiva 2005/55/CE B2 e successive o alla direttiva 99/96 fase III oppure Riga B2 o C e successive" — so a diesel needs to be Euro 5 or better. 🚨 AND THAT IS TRUE ON EVERY DAY OF THE SEASON.
There is no second list: no ecological Sunday on which the threshold moves to Euro 5, and no emergency vehicle limitation. Formigine, Castenaso, Maranello and Piacenza all carry one or both. A Euro 5 diesel is therefore lawful in Baricella on a Tuesday, on a Sunday and during an air-quality alert alike. 🔑 AND A EURO 4 DIESEL HAS A WAY OUT HERE THAT IT DOES NOT HAVE AT BAGNOLO IN PIANO.
Move-In is operative exemption letter d) of point 8, so an enrolled vehicle is outside the point 1 ban.
The order published seven days earlier at Bagnolo in Piano, on the same index, grants nothing of the kind. ⚠️ A reader who has seen that Italian national law set a structural Euro 5 diesel limitation from 1 October 2026 should note that it does not reach Baricella: the national duty applies "nei centri abitati dei Comuni con popolazione superiore a 100.000 abitanti", and Baricella sits on Arpae's register of plain-country municipalities below thirty thousand. 🚫 UNLIKE ITS SIBLINGS THIS ORDER DOES NOT PRINT ITS OWN POPULATION, so no figure is given here.
Soliera prints 15 465 and Bagnolo in Piano 9 643, each in its own preamble; this preamble recites the 100 000 threshold and never states where the Comune stands against it. A number could be taken from a statistical source, but it would not be this publisher's and it is not needed: the register the order is filed on already settles which duty binds it.
Comune di Baricella (BO) — Ordinanza Sindacale n. 9/2026 del 28/09/2026, point 1 for the threshold, point 6 for the emergency article that adds no vehicle class, point 8 letter d) for Move-In, and the preamble for the national 100,000 threshold
Comune di Baricella (BO) — Ordinanza Sindacale n. 9/2026 del 28/09/2026, the sanctions article letters a) to e), the surcharge clause and the closing article naming the enforcing bodies
Comune di Baricella (BO) — Ordinanza Sindacale n. 9/2026 del 28/09/2026: point 1 for the season, the clock, the vehicle list and the suspended days, point 6 for the emergency article, point 7 for the streets, points 8 and 9 for the exempt vehicles, and the sanctions article for the fines and the enforcing bodies
Comune di Baricella (BO) — Ordinanza Sindacale n. 9/2026 del 28/09/2026, "PIANO ARIA INTEGRATO REGIONALE (PAIR 2030). MISURE STRAORDINARIE PER LE ZONE DI PIANURA EST", signed digitally by the Mayor, Omar Mattioli, and published by Arpae Emilia-Romagna. It replaces the Comune's ordinanza sindacale nr. 20/2024. This is the operative instrument: it fixes the season, the clock, the vehicle list, the streets, the exemptions, the penalties and the enforcing bodies
Arpae Emilia-Romagna — "Ordinanza del Comune di Baricella (BO)", the publisher's sub-page for this order. 🚨 Cited for a measured negative as well as for provenance: on 2026-09-30 this page carried exactly ONE PDF link, the ordinance itself. The council resolution DGC n. 102 of 18/12/2018 that point 1 names as the instrument identifying the five built-up areas is not published here — which is part of the finding recorded under boundary_coverage. It is ALSO the page that carries the act's number and date, which the ordinance PDF's own first page does not expose to monitoring
Arpae Emilia-Romagna — "Ordinanze comuni pianura", the index of implementing ordinances for municipalities of the plain below 30 000 inhabitants. 🚨 Cited for where this record sits in the regional harvest AND for a measured correction this record makes to its own siblings: the index is STILL GROWING. A cycle recorded it as exhausted at SIX entries on 2026-09-29; the sibling records written on 2026-09-30 recorded SEVENTEEN; and counted directly later on 2026-09-30 it carries TWENTY-FIVE. ⚠️ Exactly when the last eight appeared was not measured and is not claimed here — only that three counts days or hours apart returned three different numbers, so a count inherited from a sibling record is not a count. All eight of the names the siblings do not carry are in the province of Ravenna — Alfonsine, Bagnacavallo, Bagnara di Romagna, Conselice, Cotignola, Fusignano, Massa Lombarda and Sant’Agata sul Santerno — which is a province this corpus holds nothing from. Ten of the twenty-five have been read
OpenStreetMap contributors, queried through the Overpass API on 2026-09-30 for the checks this record states as measurements. The B-020 name check is clean at both tiers, the Soliera shape rather than the Vignola one: asked how many ADMINISTRATIVE relations anywhere in the world are named "Baricella", Overpass answers exactly ONE, relation/43427 at level 8, centred 44.6734533, 11.5659248. Asked the same of PLACE NODES it answers TWO — node/69300125, place=village, at 44.6461651, 11.5332953, which is this Baricella, and one locality at 44.4384207, 11.0941557, measured 41.854 km away to the south-west and in no danger of being confused with it. The geocoder agreed from the other side and returned a single candidate at confidence 1.0, a locality with macroregion=Emilia-Romagna, region=Bologna, localadmin=Baricella and locality=Baricella; the region field agrees with the province code the publisher prints in the index entry, "Ordinanza del Comune di Baricella (BO)". The containment check D-198 requires was run on the coordinate taken rather than inferred from the geocoder's fields: is_in at 44.646213, 11.534509 returns Italia at level 2 (area/3600365331), Emilia-Romagna at level 4 (area/3600042611), Bologna the metropolitan city at level 6 (area/3600042856), Unione Terre di Pianura at level 7 (area/3607211790) and Baricella the comune at level 8 (area/3600043427). 🔑 The level-8 containment IS the author of the act. ⚠️ The level-7 union is the FIFTH different one in this family — Distretto Ceramico (Formigine, Maranello), Terre di Castelli (Vignola), Terre d'Argine (Soliera), Terra di Mezzo (Bagnolo in Piano) and Terre di Pianura here — and no two member comuni of those five unions have written the same order. The anchor sits 0.096 km from the place node and 3.918 km from the relation centre, so no radius_km override is set. 🚨 The Overpass endpoint exhausted all three bounded retries with HTTP 504 on the first run of the check and answered in full on the second, minutes later. ⚠️ That first failure took the name check down with it even though only the containment query had failed, which is recorded here as a measurement and filed as V-068. © OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL.
Arpae Emilia-Romagna — "Liberiamo l'aria", the regional portal for the antismog measures. Cited for the regional framework this order implements: the measures run from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027, and Arpae keeps two separate ordinance registers, one for municipalities over 30 000 inhabitants and one for the plain-country municipalities below that. 🔑 Which register an order is filed on is what settles whether the national over-100,000 duty reaches it — and it matters more for this record than for its siblings, because this order, alone among them, does not print its own population figure
This rule ends on 2027-03-31, by the dates in the order itself. We do not re-check it after that — the page comes out of our index, and only a new order from the authority can put a rule for this road back on it.
