In this paper we analyse the limit values of the new EU air quality Directive (1999/30/EC) for SO2; CO; NO2; PM10 and O3 pollutans. The annual average concentrations are decreasing from 1980 to 1990; from 1990 to 2003, NO2 and PM10 have been stable, SO2 and CO continuing downwards and the ozone has increased. Concentrations of NO2 and PM10 are higher of limit values in more of 96% of the urban stations, by contrast the highest concentrations of ozone occurs in the surronundings.
