In addition, the introduction of the "red zone" follows measures that have already been implemented under the coordination of the prefecture, including improved lighting and video surveillance.
The "red zone" includes such areas as Piazza della Stazione, Via Mascagni, Via Puccini, Viale Bonaini, and Viale Gramsci.
