Those who are against the 30 km per hour speed limit in the city have little hope of winning. Bologna, the city targeted for adopting the measure, said things are going well. Fewer accidents, decrease in injuries and deaths, collapse of "code red" interventions, reduced fines. The rebels are certainly there, so much so that in 122 days of checks more than 11 thousand vehicles were stopped and 1603 fines were issued. Not even thinking about it, but at the top of the standings of infringements, exceeding speed limits. The entire slow-moving project costs €24 million, but despite the limits imposed, the municipality still recovers money from reckless drivers. A partial return on investment is thus paid by improvised and fake Max Verstappen. It's so paranoid to drive at slow speeds in a historically quiet city for commuting. Today people use bicycles and public transport more, hitting pedestrians less.
Public transport wins
Travelers on public transport increased by 5 million in 180 days, aware that they arrive at their destination sooner with public transport. Obviously the system must work and the voice of those waiting at the stops is as important as the mayor's joy Matthew Lepore. Do not ignore criticism in order to do better. On these sultry days the people of Bologna sweat more but they certainly breathe less nitrogen dioxide, the most carcinogenic substance emitted from mufflers. It is the number 1 "marker" of urban environmental processes, they explain in the Municipality, trying to make the mass of motorists understand that cars with internal combustion engines and speeds above 30 per hour are killers on the loose. Who does the 24 million euros come from? From the people of Bologna and some funding. The plan is not completed because there are 9 million euros of work underway and another 7 in planning. The administration will implement safety projects for roads, intersections, new pedestrian and school squares, expansion of cycle paths and cycle stations. In a short time so as not to suffocate the city with construction sites and modified roads. Slow Festina, wrote Suetonius – hurry slowly – and he was not thinking of the city of the two towers. The Bolognese, yes.
