In Brief

Opposition leader Luisa Sánchez urges Vigo city council to adopt a municipal ordinance regulating motorhome parking and to create at least one serviced area.

Luisa Sánchez, leader of the opposition in Vigo (People's Party), has called on the city council to adopt a municipal ordinance regulating motorhome parking and to set up at least one serviced area. She noted that, unlike other major cities in Galicia, Vigo has no municipal motorhome area and lacks daytime parking in tourist zones.

Sánchez linked the lack of infrastructure to the recent introduction of a tourist tax: the city charges visitors but provides no basic services. According to industry representatives, the average daily spending of a motorhome traveller is about 250 euros. Sánchez also recalled that mayor Abel Caballero promised to create such an area in 2019, but the promise remains unfulfilled.

62-year-old retiree from Barcelona offers free motorhome parking service in Lleida

Josep Jané, a 62-year-old retiree from Barcelona, has been voluntarily maintaining and welcoming guests at the motorhome parking area in Bovera (Lleida) since February. He helps drivers park, informs them about local services, and resolves issues. He moved to the village in April and rents a house there. The initiative was proposed to the municipality, which supported it. The parking area has 9 spaces, with a rotation of 2 per day, hosting over 60 motorhomes monthly, 90% of which are foreign visitors from France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, and Denmark. Jané plans to systematize data collection on visitors. The mayor set a fee of €3/day for electricity and noted that signs prohibit motorhomes from driving through the village.
