A proposal has been submitted to the municipality of Mar del Plata to allow motorhomes weighing up to 3500 kg to park during the day on coastal streets. The initiative would lift a decades-old ban on parking in central and coastal zones, but would keep the prohibition on overnight stays (from 10 p.m. to 8 a.m.) and on using public spaces for camping. The project is to be reviewed by the mobility committee on July 6, 2026.
The city council of Comodoro Rivadavia is considering a draft ordinance regulating the parking and overnight stay of motorhomes, caravans, and campers within the city limits. For the first time, the document establishes a regulatory framework for such vehicles, defining permitted zones for day parking and overnight stays with access to water and electricity. Overnight stays in unauthorized places from 10 p.m. to 8 a.m. are prohibited, as is the discharge of gray and black water in inappropriate places. Violations are classified as minor, serious, and very serious, with corresponding fines.
