In Saint-Martin-de-Londres (Hérault), a conflict has erupted over plans to build a motorhome parking area on the site of a former football stadium. Opponents have launched a petition, arguing the stadium is the only freely accessible space for recreation and sports, and citing flood risks and additional soil sealing. The mayor defends the project, estimating potential revenue at €178,000 per season, and promises permeable surfaces and landscaping.

Around 200 caravans occupy park in Chaponnay near Lyon

On Sunday, May 31, 2026, a convoy of 150–200 caravans, representing an estimated 400–600 people, arrived in the commune of Chaponnay (Rhône, population 4,500). The caravans set up on the Raymond Durand municipal park, causing the main road to be blocked and traffic jams at several intersections. Mayor Nicolas Varigny announced his intention to file a complaint and initiate legal proceedings, noting that authorities on site ordered not to prevent the installation but to start legal actions. The gendarmerie increased surveillance, and the arrivals reportedly plan to stay for two weeks.
