100 ROADS FOR PLAY": LEGAMBIENTE FOR A 'DIFFERENT CITY'
(AGI) - Rome, Italy, April 12 - 'Free to play, free to breathe'. This is the slogan of 100 roads for play by Legambiente, on 17 April. For a day, with the help of Legambiente volunteers, a different city is possible. It is possible to run and play without having to take account of bottlenecks.
This historic celebration, which crowns the long winter of Legambiente's Bad Air campaign against traffic and smog is in its eleventh year and is this year organised in collaboration with Volkswagen. It is aimed at children, but also parents and grandparents, to stop traffic for one Sunday, with roads and squares closed to traffic and opened for games, artists, music, shows, workshops and theatre.
'Volkswagen has collaborated fully since 1996 with Legambiente in environmental education projects with the aim of increasing attention for the quality of life - declared Marco Chelazzi, Marketing Manager for Volkswagen -. After, 'Plan the Future, 'Comunicambiente' and 'Salvalarte', we will work freely with Legambiente to create 100 roads for play, on the 11th year of the event. Thus on 17 April the invitation to take part in 100 Roads for Play is for everyone, old and young, on foot or on bicycle, on roller skates or on foot, to experience the city in a different way, to rediscover the interest and improve liveability'. All the information can be found on the internet sites, www.legambiente.com and www.volkswagen.it, where it is possible to consult the complete list of roads given over to play. (AGI) -
