Venice Bans Wheeled Suitcases
威尼斯禁止拉杆箱
The Venice City Council announced a decision this week that will affect millions of tourists. As of May 2015, tourists will no longer be allowed to pull noisy suitcases along the streets of Venice. The ban will reduce noise pollution for locals and limit the deterioration of footbridges, marble steps, and pathways in the car-free city. Tourists who continue to use hard-wheeled, noisy suitcases in Venice could be fined up to $620(US). Venice-friendly luggage with air-filled tires will be permitted, but must first be designed.
本周，威尼斯议会所作出的决议影响了上百万游客。从2015年5月起，游客将禁止在威尼斯大街使用声音嘈杂的拉杆箱。这一禁令将减少对当地居民造成的噪声污染，降低拉杆箱对这座无车城市中人行桥、大理石阶梯以及道路的损害。仍然在威尼斯使用拉杆箱的游客将面临高达620美金的罚款。威尼斯欢迎游客使用充气轮拉杆箱，但是这种箱子还没有被设计出来。
