The ban on overnight parking of motorhomes and campervans on parts of the North Yorkshire coast has been made permanent. The decision was taken on March 27 following a 2024 experimental order introduced due to complaints about anti-social behavior and overcrowded streets. The prohibition applies from 11 pm to 7 am in North Bay, Scarborough and on the A174 south of Sandsend village.
