Palermo Without Cars: Via Roma and Via Libertà Closed for Car Free Day and D'Acquisto Memorial
Flash mobs, bike rides and walks among monuments during European Mobility Week, while parking bans take effect on Via Libertà for the D'Acquisto Memorial race
Sunday sees a car ban in the heart of Palermo. As Repubblica Palermo reports, the city takes part in European Mobility Week with a program of initiatives involving Via Roma and Via Libertà between morning and afternoon.
Car Free Day: flash mobs and bike rides
The event, titled "Car free day – Liberiamo la città", features flash mobs, walks and bike rides exploring the city's monuments, as reported by PalermoToday and other local outlets. The two main thoroughfares in the center become, for several hours, a pedestrian and cycling space.
D'Acquisto Memorial brings parking bans
Making the day even more intense from a traffic perspective is the Memorial D'Acquisto, a race held on Via Libertà. According to PalermoToday, the race entails parking bans and closure to cars on Via Libertà.
Anyone who needs to drive in the Via Roma and Via Libertà area will therefore need to account for the two overlapping initiatives, which between morning and afternoon limit traffic in the heart of the city.
