Residents of the Ćićarija region in northern Istria, above the town of Buzet near the Croatian-Slovenian border, are calling for action against large campervans and vehicles towing boats using narrow local roads. Local resident Marin Nežić told HRT that traffic can be blocked for hours at weekends, and some road sections are only slightly more than two metres wide. Navigation apps direct tourists onto routes unsuitable for large vehicles. Residents and local initiatives have urged authorities in Zagreb and Ljubljana to improve cross-border road connections, including links between the Koper area and the western branch of the Istrian Y motorway, and proposed signs restricting access for campervans and other large vehicles.
