According to the city hall, the decree establishes the rules for the implementation of these structures on roads with a maximum speed of up to 60 km/h. The law's proposal is to encourage the population to use urban spaces, creating environments that encourage coexistence and leisure.

The equipment can be installed on the initiative of the city hall or upon request from residents or companies, which must follow technical standards and accessibility. The implementation must also respect safety and urban mobility criteria, without interfering with pedestrian crossings, bus stops, access points for people with disabilities, emergency equipment or special parking spaces. One of the points provided for in the law is that the responsibility for the implementation, maintenance and conservation of spaces will lie entirely with the applicant. To obtain authorization, the interested party must file a project with the city hall, with the execution costs also being their responsibility. In addition to maintenance, those responsible must also remove structures when there is a need for works, changes to traffic or other interventions in the public interest.
