The controversial decree, which, in previous years, has caused a considerable number of complaints, is here. To be honest, it never went away, as Varese town council included it among the &ldquo;permanent orders&rdquo;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;\"><b><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size:12.0pt;font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\">THE ORDER<\/span><\/b><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size:12.0pt;font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"> &ndash; Order No. 50200 of Varese town council, for example, comes into force in the middle of the month. What does it say? &ldquo;For the period of 15 November to 15 March, inclusive, of every calendar year, from 00.00 to 24.00, all vehicles, as defined by Art. 43 of Legislative Decree No. 285, of 30\/04\/2010, &lsquo;The New Highway Code&rsquo;, must circulate on all roads under the jurisdiction of Varese town council, with special winter tyres suitable for travelling on snow and ice or, alternatively, circulate with suitable non-skid means on board the vehicle (suitable for the type of vehicle in use).&rdquo;<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size:12.0pt;font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\">There is a similar order also for the provincial roads that go from Veddasca to the borders with Milan Province.
