UCA: 20 years of unfulfilled promises for a motorhome area in Taranto
Original source: buonasera24.it

Stefano Censini, national president of the Unione Club Amici (UCA), denounced that Taranto has lacked a modern, equipped motorhome parking area for 20 years. He stated that authorities complain about improper parking but fail to provide a regulated space. Censini noted that similar facilities are built quickly in other cities, while in Taranto the designated site is used for events. UCA proposes a year-round parking area that could also serve as a support point for civil protection.
