Vilanova i la Geltrú to implement low emission zone

Vilanova i la Geltrú will conclude the year by implementing a low emission zone (ZBE) in the city center, though local drivers will be exempt from the new mobility restrictions.

Key municipal priorities discussed by Mayor Juan Luis Ruiz include housing, urbanism, neighborhood improvements, and economic activity. Additionally, construction for the covering and renaturalization of the Escola Miquel Utrillo courtyard is scheduled to begin in June 2027, a project intended to decongest the Pins Vens pavilion and enhance central green spaces.

In cultural news, the city will receive the torch for the 2026 Special Olympics in Tarragona. Meanwhile, the Centre d’Art Contemporani La Sala is hosting a cartographic exhibition celebrating the 150th anniversary of the Eixample Gumà plan.
