I would like to know if the closure of the city centre to private traffic would have a major impact on pollution or not so relevant?
According with this study of the city university it would have an impact around the 40%: https://goog.gl/dfX45dds
How is pollution measured in the city? Are the sensors really distributed in a representative way?
Can light pollution be considered as a type of pollution? thank you very much.
What measures are being taken in other cities similar to ours?
