People-counting systems will be installed in Venice


To limit tourists' access to the city, people-counting systems will soon be installed at some strategic points in Venice.

New measures in Venice to limit tourist crowding: the city government has approved a framework resolution on tourism to be shared with the state and other entities that will be closely examined by the government and Unesco to improve or limit access to the city.

People-counting systems will soon be installed at strategic points, such as the Calatrava Bridge, the Ponte degli Scalzi bridge, the three bridges crossing Rio Novo, the mouth of Rio Terà Lista di Spagna, and the departure and arrival points of the Gran Turismo “lancioni,” people-counting systems.

New refreshment areas for tourists will also be identified and included in a thematic map, a communication campaign will be launched on the days of greatest influx, and the number of local police officers will be increased.

There is also talk of a possible ticket to reserve entrance to St. Mark’s Square in order to moderate access.
