LTZ Rome

The first limited traffic zone  in Rome was established on the 16^th of November , 1995 and was called LTZ Centro Storico.

The creation of this area  has three main purposes:

• the preservation of the historical and archaeological heritage of the Eternal City
• the improvement of weather conditions burdened by strong indicators of pollution
• encouraging the use of public transport

Since the Municipality has created other limited traffic zones, scattered within the municipal area, and they are regulated differently for days, times and boundaries of areas.

So motorists  which don’t know the city well and intend to go to Rome, should  pay attention to these areas with limited traffic and its related decisions not to run into quite expensive  penalties.

The LTZ Rome and the usual parking problem  in big cities can create more than a few headaches to drivers, but leaving your car in one of the many parking-garage located along the line A and B of the metro, you can easily get around these obstacles to enjoy the city .

Let’s see in detail what are these areas, their schedules and their limitations.
