Ecologistas en Acción displays a banner to present its#ConfinemElsCotxes #RecuperemLaCiutat” campaign that has started in Valencia coinciding with the European Mobility Week (SEM) to claim the abusive use of the car in our
daily trips.
The campaign calls for a Crash Plan for the conversion of the road to give priority to pedestrians, bicycles and public transport. The organization warns that it will continue to pressure and plan possible actions in the streets until it does not.
They ask the administrations that the lack of control protects the health of the people, guaranteeing the safety distances and the maximum levels of contamination established by the WHO.
The campaign has been launched with a video on LEZs and the unfurling of a banner to claim car-free day.
