Activities within the week
Quito organises activities during EUROPEANMOBILITYWEEK 2006, taking into account the annual theme.
All week
An exhibition will be done at the Metropolitan Cultural Centre, about motorised vehicles use, fuel quality, emissions and climate change.
Climate change will also be a very important issue to discuss during the forum "Quality of air in Quito"
Car-free day
Quito carries out a Car-Free Day 2006 and closes off one or more streets to traffic, and opens it to pedestrians, cyclists and public transport.
Zone opened to residents on Car-Free Day:
We propose to restrict three city points to private car. One within the main tourist services and entertainment zone in the city core. The second at the south of the city in a very crowded street where working people use to have lunch and dinner. The third zone is the historical centre of Quito, the largest Cultural World Site in Latin America.
