Expo 2015
WHY?
1. Milan “sustainable candidature” to Expo 2015
All preparatory activities, carrying out and “ex-post”
activities will be developed according to the principles of
sustainability. The event will guarantee long-lasting benefits
for the whole city.
2. The candidature for Expo 2015 boosts the plans and
the projects for sustainability currently designed or
implemented by the Municipality of Milan.
Many essential projects regarding Milan and its surrounding
areas are actually being realized or planned, but the Expo 2015
will give us the chance to develop an integrated comprehensive
project and reach higher targets.
A Sustainable Expo 2015
Mobility :
- public transport system extension to municipal and
regional level (infrastructure and services)
- road network improvement
- promotion of alternative and renewable fuels for
innovative mobility systems
Energy in buildings:
Develop regulation and specific guidelines for

Milan strategy for sustainable mobility
Targets of the Municipality of Milan for sustainable mobility:
• 30 % reduction of incoming vehicles
• public transport increase: over 50% of trips by public
transport
• 25% reduction of PM 10 emissions from transport
PM10 concentration are a critical factor in Milan. In 2005 the
50 mg/mc daily concentration limit has been exceeded for
150 days when the European limit permits 35 days.
Milan strategy for sustainable mobility:
1.
Public transport development plan
(increase offer; increase frequency; expansion of the
underground transport network)
2.
Development of “on demand” public transport
3.
Development of tariff integration in the regional area
4.
Price Parking extension
5.
Development of new inter-change parking areas
6.
Development of cycling mobility
Milan strategy for sustainable mobility:
7.
Rationalization of city logistic
8.
Achievement of higher level of road security
9.
Development of car sharing services
10. Info-mobility technologies
11. Incentivation of zero/low emission public fleets and private
vehicles
12. Pollution Charge
Milan strategy for sustainable mobility
“Pollution Charge”
It will speed up the replacing of old (and pollutant)
vehicles and make available the financial resources for
public transport expansion.
It will concern an area of 9 kmq. in the city center,
limiting the circulation of polluting vehicles by levying the
payment of an entry fee on an average of 78.000 trips
that take place in the selected area every day.

“Pollution Charge”
TARIFF
• The tariff will be related to PM10 emission factor of vehicles
• The higher the emission factor, the higher the tariff according to the basic European “polluter pays” principle
CONTROLS
• The control will be guaranteed by electronic video systems
A strategy for sustainable mobility:
“Pollution Charge”
PAYMENT
• Will be allowed through:
– Credit card
– Internet
– SMS
– Selling points
• The income will be aimed at improving sustainable mobility.
