From Vicarious Books, hope this hasnt been posted already:
`At the beginning of March 2016 a new by-law was passed in the French city of Royan banning motorhomes and caravans from parking or stopping pretty much anywhere in the city except at the Aire. The by-law can be read in its entirety here: http://www.ville-royan.fr/images/Arretes/16-0130.pdf, including the list of 35 roads and parking areas where the bans are being put in place.
In a nutshell, all vehicles which can be used for 'camping and habitation' have been banned from stopping anywhere in the town for the following reasons:
They disrupt the flow of traffic
They ruin the aesthetic character of the town (i.e. disrupt the sea view)
And there is dedicated motorhome parking at the Aire
This means that motorhomers may not be able to visit a local restaurant or shop without parking at the Aire first, paying the €12 fee, and making their way into town on foot or via public transport. And caravanners may not be able to visit the town at all without finding suitable parking elsewhere.`
