Florence’s Restricted Traffic Zone (ZTL) was established in 1990 and to date covers an area of about 4 km2 out of 48 km2 of built-up area and is currently controlled by 20 telematic gates. Technology equipment is mounted on the gates to monitor the transit of all incoming vehicles: through the ptelematic ortes verify the transit of cars, take a photo of the vehicle’s license plate, and issue a fine in case of a violation of the LTZ, if the vehicle is not authorized. In addition to the penalty for crossing the gate, it is forbidden to park in the Florence ZTL under any circumstances without the appropriate permit. The only solution is to use the garages. By choosing our parking lots, you avoid problems related to fines both for passing under the telematics gate and for any parking ban in the restricted traffic zone. The ZTL operates year-round on weekdays with the following hours: Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. In addition, the “summer” ZTL is active from the first Thursday of April until the first Saturday of October on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays from 11 p.m. to 3 a.m. Also beware of those crossings that are authorized ONLY to public and emergency vehicles h.24/24 and not to private vehicles.
