Azerbaijan, Baku, May 4 / Trend, K.Zarbaliyeva /
Entry of large-tonnage transport vehicles into Baku will be limited from May 8 to May 28, Main Traffic Police Department's division chief Kamran Aliyev told Trend on Friday.
This measure is applied to motor transport in connection with the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 for reduced density of vehicles and unimpeded passage.
Owners of motor vehicles are required to use large-tonnage transport vehicles in Baku as little as possible.
