After Milan and Modena, the outdoor smoking ban will soon come into force in Turin too. The rule will concern parks, events, bus stops, dehors. Anyone who is less than 5 meters away from other people will not be able to smoke any type of cigarette, not even electronic or heated tobacco ones.
The stop is contained in a resolution approved by the Turin city council which intervenes on the urban police regulation and will be in force in two weeks (after publication on the notice board). Fines of up to 100 euros are foreseen for those who do not comply with the ban.
Therefore, in Turin it will soon not be possible to smoke at the tables of outdoor bars and restaurants, not even if it is a pipe, a cigar, an electronic cigarette or a heated tobacco one. Only the explicit consent of all those present will be able to lift the ban, allowing anyone who wishes to smoke. No exemption is foreseen, however, in the event that children or pregnant women are near us: in these circumstances smoking will always be prohibited.
