Sydney fines 86 euros for parking caravans and boats on public streets
Original source: Motor16

Sydney authorities will fine 86 euros (140 Australian dollars) from late July 2026 for parking caravans and boats on streets without a towing vehicle. The measure applies in five residential areas of Sutherland Shire as a six-month trial. In 2025, the council received over 2,400 complaints about boats and trailers and over 500 about caravans. The aim is to free up space and improve road safety.
