Interesting article. Travel & Leisure had a more detailed article about Italy's Slow Cities movement in its September 2002 issue.

Thanks for the link to the article. I'd previously read about this; might have been the Travel & Leisure article that Howard mentioned.

"Slow Cities, which must have a population below 50,000, pledge to restore their medieval centers -- which many take to mean ridding them of traffic..."

Ridding their medieval centers of traffic? Go Slow Cities, Go!
