Schagen authorities see no need for extra rules for motorhomes
Original source: Noordkop247

The municipality of Schagen does not plan to introduce special rules for motorhome tourists, deeming the current number of overnight spots sufficient. Authorities note that expanding the offer may only redistribute the tourist flow within the region without increasing its total volume, and developing new regulations would require significant administrative resources.

Rise in camper and caravan travel in Spain brings parking and waste problems

New registrations of campers and caravans in Spain rose 84% in February. Municipalities like Tarifa have tightened parking rules due to overcrowding and litter. Industry association cites infrastructure shortage: Spain has only about 1,400 official sites versus over 7,000 in France, Germany and the Netherlands.

Utrecht prepares for summer holidays, but 'big rush is yet to come'

Camping De Boomgaard in Bunnik is gradually filling up with holidaymakers, though the peak is expected after schools close on Friday. The campsite owner notes that more Dutch people are choosing to stay in the Netherlands due to warm weather. At a storage facility in Maarssen, preparations are underway for a mass exodus: most campers and caravans are being picked up on Monday and Tuesday.

Scan car in Maastricht also fines caravans

In Maastricht, automated scan cars issue penalty assessments not only for unpaid parking of cars but also for caravans. The Maastricht van NU party has received complaints and wants the rules reviewed, proposing an exemption for caravans, folding trailers and campers. Politician Jo Smeets noted that caravan owners cannot obtain a parking permit because trailers often have a different license plate, and even if the plate matches but the caravan is not attached to the car, separate payment is required. The party suggests allowing free parking of a caravan in front of a home for up to three days.
