This is the sentence in question from one of my text books.

> 学生がいませんから、パブもシティーセンターも静かになります。

My Translation - "There are no students so the pubs and city centre become
quiet."

Why is it も and not と separating パブ and シティーセンター and then another も before 静か
which I don't understand at all?

Use of も in this sentence: パブもシティーセンターも静かになります。
As pointed out in the comments, ～も～も (with a positive verb) corresponds
usually to the construction "both ... and ..." in English. The Japanese
construction is not limited to two nouns, but one has ～も～も～も (which might be
"all of ..., ... and ..." in English).

I understand the construction to be "not restrictive" in the sense that ～も～も
can mean "both ... and ... and a bunch of other ...". On the other hand ～と～
suggest "exactly ... and ...". So here

> 学生がいませんから、パブもシティーセンターも静かになります。  
>  Because there are no students, pubs, the city centre _and everything else_
> become quiet.
>
> 学生がいませんから、パブとシティーセンターが静かになります。  
>  Because there are no students, particularly pubs and the city centre become
> quiet _although everywhere else business is as usual_.
