These are areas where the speed limit of 30 kilometers per hour will be enforced, with the aim of encouraging the peaceful coexistence of pedestrians, cyclists and cars in redeveloped spaces and greener. In Rome the Municipality deems the idea of a 30 km/h speed limit on major routes impracticablewhile activating the limit on secondary roads is considered an achievable goal.
