Yes to skiing, no to travel between regions. And today I change colors

Skiing starts again, but only for residents of the Region and owners of second homes because the green light should not be given to travel between Regions. It is a start with the plants open at only 30% of the maximum capacity of the plants in most locations, even if the CTS had expanded by up to 50%.

The green light is from February 15 and precisely on this day Lombardy and Piedmont will leave. On the 17th, if it doesn’t turn orange, it’s up to Trentino (not Alto Adige which is the red zone until February 28th), on the 18th Valle d’Aosta.

Veneto decides today, but Cortina can only ski after the end of the World Cup on 21 February.

On the Apennines the sector in Emilia-Romagna is ready to go, not in Tuscany and Abruzzo because the Regions should go orange and skiing is only allowed in the yellow zone.

The only regional guidelines with common indications starting from closed number. You can get on the lifts only with the reservation. The number of ski passes is limited. The mask is mandatory. Spacing at the shelters and no counter service.

Many resorts open only part of the lifts and all connections between different districts and regions are at risk. The Sella Ronda, between the provinces of Bolzano, Trento and Belluno, is closed. Much easier to open the small districts.

A system and management that the localities are trying to make as adaptable as possible and to be used also in the future: everything online, no files and a message on your phone when it’s your time to get on the lifts for example in Madonna di Campiglio.

The numbers are limited because it is now clear that the borders of the regions will not open from February 16. Moving between regions will be prohibited until February 25th. The extension in a decree of the outgoing government for fears of growth of the contagion and spread of the variants. The Regions themselves had advocated an extension of the closure, which has always been the line of the ministers Boccia and Speranza also shared by the Quirinale. You leave your region for reasons of health, work and urgency and you continue to be able to go to second homes with self-certification.

It will be up to the new government to decide what will be after February 25 and after March 5, the date on which the Dpcm expires with the other restrictions, what keeps restaurants and bars closed in the evening even in the yellow regions, cinemas and theaters and sports facilities such as swimming pools and gyms closed everywhere. The Scientific Technical Committee has already begun to issue new guidelines.

As every Friday comes the monitoring that leads to the change of color of the Regions. Sicily should also go yellow. Orange risk, on the other hand, for Tuscany, Abruzzo, Liguria and also for the province of Trento. For Umbria the red zone could arrive for the whole territory, since many municipalities have already made the transition. National RT is at 0.95.
