Ortona’s council approved a new Zona a Traffico Limitato for the Terravecchia district on 16 June 2026, planned as an experimental scheme — but as of now it hasn’t started operating. No permit is required, no camera is checking plates, and no fine applies to any vehicle entering the centre. That changes only once the trial phase actually begins.
