The fourth Section of the Administrative Court (Tar) of Lombardy granted the request for suspension of the acts taken by the Municipality of Milan, that would have prohibited the traffic of all commercial vehicles within the restricted traffic area –Cerchia dei Bastioni– (out of the hours of loading and unloading) with enforcement from January 2010.
The Administrative Court of Lombardy – Milan grasped the meaning of the reasons of the claim, raised by some trade associations and private companies and filled by this Law Firm:
- necessity to protect development needs and strengthening of the economic resources of the city
- services to citizens
- consideration that environmental protection should be pursued with different means and plans
without thickening the commercial vehicle traffic in a unique and specific period of time, that would amplify the polluting emissions into the atmosphere.
