To the east, Place de la République, Boulevard du Temple, Boulevard des Filles du Calvaire, Boulevard Beaumarchais, Place de la Bastille and Boulevard Bourdon, which set the limits of the ZTL. On the south side, the quays between Quai Henry IV and Quai des Tuileries serve as a boundary. Despite the wishes of the town hall, the docks are therefore excluded from the restriction zone.

A list of exceptions has been drawn up, including for example professional vehicles for healthcare personnel, taxis and VTCs, vehicles for people with reduced mobility holding the mobility-inclusion card, etc.

The town hall intends to reduce traffic in the hyper-center of Paris, up to 30% on avenue de l'Opéra, 15% on boulevard de Sébastopol, between 11 and 13% on quai Henri IV, according to a study. The objective is also to reduce noise pollution and improve air quality.
