Car pass: what it is for and how to get it

On the occasion of the Milan Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games, for reasons of public order, in agreement with the Prefecture, Police Headquarters and law enforcement agencies, some areas of the territory of Cortina d’Ampezzo will be affected by an extraordinary system of traffic regulation through the introduction of temporary Limited Traffic Zones: the Olympic and Paralympic Limited Traffic Zones.

These measures are active only on race days and during specific time slots, with the aim of ensuring the safety of the event and its spectators, while minimizing the impact on the daily lives of residents.

The areas covered by the Olympic and Paralympic ZTLs will be within the boundaries of the Municipality of Cortina d’Ampezzo.

During the periods of activation of the extraordinary LTZs, access will be allowed only to vehicles with the appropriate badge: the “Pass Auto Territori,” to be displayed on the windshield.

This system will guarantee free movement to all those entitled to the Auto Pass-residents, second-home owners, commuting workers, commercial and production activities, hospitality facilities and their guests, delivery or logistics services, and other authorized categories indicated in the platform-while restricting access to unauthorized vehicles.

This will make it possible to reconcile the holding of the competitions with local mobility, limiting the access of private vehicles to the most sensitive areas and encouraging the use of public transport, which will be enhanced for the occasion and which has always been one of the sustainability choices adopted by the Games Organizing Committee.

Important: Extraordinary LTZs will only regulate access to cities: therefore, it will always be possible to leave freely.
