⛵ The America's Cup is in full swing: how city traffic is changing
The arrival of the America's Cup brings a world-class nautical spectacle, but also significant changes to urban traffic. To ensure the races take place safely and to accommodate thousands of fans, traffic in the areas adjacent to the coastline will undergo major adjustments.
🚫 Main Closures and Traffic Restrictions
🛑 Seafront and adjacent areas: Total closure to ordinary vehicular traffic on the main waterfront arteries during race hours.
🅿️ Parking bans: No-parking zones with forced towing are in effect along the access roads to the race village.
🛂 ZTL access gates: Access to restricted areas will be permitted exclusively to authorized vehicles, emergency vehicles, residents with passes, and public transport shuttles.
🚲 How to Get Around: Recommended Alternatives
🚆 Public Transport: We strongly recommend using trains, subways, and dedicated shuttles, which have been reinforced for the occasion.
🚲 Soft Mobility: Extended pedestrian zones and temporary bike lanes are the fastest way to get close to the race line.
🅿️ Park-and-Ride: Use peripheral parking lots and continue by public transport to avoid congestion in the city center.
📌 Tips for Boaters and QueryBoat Residents
If you are planning a day on a boat to follow the races from the sea or simply need to travel to reach your mooring, always consult the updated ordinances from the Port Authority and the Municipal Police.
