From May 4, parking of vans and vehicles longer than 5 meters is prohibited in the Jižní Svahy housing estate in Zlín. The measure targets 'wild parking' and aims to free up spaces for residents.

The city of Zlín, Czech Republic, is introducing parking restrictions for vans and caravans in the Jižní Svahy district starting May 4. According to the city administration, all vehicles longer than 5 meters, as well as all caravans and camping trailers, are banned from public parking lots throughout the housing estate.
