Between December 17 and 24, Milan offered unlimited public transport anywhere in the city for 24 hours for the cost of a single fare (€1.50). A similar move was carried out in Turin, introducing two days of free transit.
Milan introduced a central congestion charge zone in 2012, while it is also gradually joining up pedestrian areas to create an ultimately car-free city centre. During the emergency period, its other measures involve making city bike-share rentals free, and offering free transit tickets for groups of adults and children, a move that’s already been introduced to deter parents from driving their kids to school. Diesel vehicles have also been banned from the streets during the pollution peak.
