Milan De Angeli district pedestrianization project

Overview

The Milan City Council approved the pedestrianization of via Luigi Sacco in the De Angeli district, covering the area between via Giuseppe Frua and via Seprio, extending to piazza Sicilia. The project was designed to increase safety for students at the Umberto Eco Comprehensive Institute and improve access to the municipal library through new street furniture and greenery.

Following the approval, the measure faced local opposition. Representative Deborah Dell’Acqua of Fratelli d’Italia called for a suspension of the project, citing technical reports that suggest the plan may increase traffic congestion on surrounding streets like via Seprio and via Buonarroti. Critics also noted the impact of removing 25 parking spaces and 10 motorcycle spots on local residents and businesses.
