Gran Alacant Forum

Two low emission zones now up and running in Alicante, from 1st October 2023, one is Gran Via, the other is the city centre area. You must display an environmental sticker to drive in these zones, otherwise potentially 200 euro fine.

Not sure of exact parameters for the "city centre", trying to find out.

Encountered this issue 10 days ago. ITV had expired and needed sorting for us coming out on Saturday past, got it ok but car had to be taken to Murcia!

We've noticed that the hundreds of motor homes parked on the seafront seem to go elsewhere in the summer. I've often wondered ehst they do with toilet waste though and where do they fill up with water ?

That same point is on my mind as some of the particularly large homes dont seem to move for months. They aren't storing up their grey water / toilet waste. So what do they do ?  Perhaps there is someone on here who actually knows. I genuinely dont know how the local council tolerate it. They (the council) are red hot on licencing and permits for just about everything else in most walks of life but not this.

I notice that the project down at Arenals (opposite the Milla cafe on the island) has stalled with no work taking place for years now. That was supposed to be an official place on multi levels where motor homes could be parked up

The itv stations in Alicante area have been having strike actions which has led to a backlog.Be lucky to get an appointment .My neighbour managed toget an appointment in Novelda but when he went he was turned away because his itv still had 2 weeks left on it and the were only doing re-tests or ones that had run out. He was told to go home and re book.  Best of luck.
