Marino bidding for pedestrian-only forum road

(ANSA) - Rome, October 14 - Outgoing Rome Mayor Ignazio Marino aims to complete one of his dreams, banning all traffic including buses and taxis from the Via dei Fori Imperiali from the Colosseum to Piazza Venezia, before confirming his resignation after an expenses scandal on November 2, sources said Wednesday. The mayor was said to be hard at work on the project, a key part of his electoral platform two and a half year ago.
