As part of the campaigns, restrictions are предусмотрены for state civil servants. In particular, on the specified days they are prohibited from using official motor vehicles, reports the Ministry of Justice. The measure is being introduced to improve the environmental situation and reduce the transport burden.

It is noted separately that if the established dates fall on working days, drivers’ wages are retained. This procedure, as clarified, is aimed at ensuring the social protection of employees.

According to experts, holding a “car-free day” should help reduce air pollution in cities, encourage the use of public transport, and raise the population’s environmental awareness. It is also emphasized that such initiatives are widely used in global practice and are considered an effective tool for reducing road congestion and protecting the environment.
