A TRO (Traffic Regulation Order) is being put in place to better balance the needs of residents in Saltburn and visitors who enjoy the fantastic tourism offer of the town.
Parking for motorhomes will be restricted to existing marked parking bays on the north side of Marine Parade. The bays will offer parking for four hours on Monday-Saturday between 9am and 5pm, with no return for four hours after the initial parking period.
There will be no parking for motorhomes at any time on the remaining unrestricted sections on the north and south side of Marine Parade.
Answers to some frequently asked questions about the TRO can be found below:
What parking restrictions will be in place?
A limited waiting restriction of 4 hours, no return within 4 hours, will apply in the existing marked bays on Marine Parade from Monday to Saturday, 9am–5pm.
Parking is unrestricted on Sundays and after 5pm each day.
In the unmarked areas, a prohibition of motorhomes will be introduced. These areas will be marked with a single yellow line and signage, motorhomes will be prohibited at all times, but other vehicles may still park in these locations.
Where can residents park?
Residents can park in the marked bays on an evening and Sundays and for 4 hours during the restricted periods. Residents, other than those with motorhomes can also park in the areas with the motor home restriction in place as indicated by a single yellow line.
Residents can also park in other unrestricted areas of the town.
Will this stop motorhomes parking overnight?
No. The restrictions do not fully prevent overnight parking, but they limit where and for how long motorhomes may stay.
Motorhomes will only be allowed in the marked bays on Marine Parade and will remain subject to the 4‑hour limit (Mon–Sat, 9am–5pm).
These restrictions aim to manage overall parking demand, not to ban motorhomes, but they do prevent long‑term or sustained stays on Marine Parade.
How will the limited stay be monitored?
Users will be required to obtain a free ticket from a parking machine for the 4 hours stay. The council’s enforcement team will monitor the area.
What is classed as a motorhome?
Under Regulation 2(1) of the Motor Vehicles (Type Approval) (Great Britain) Regulations 1979, a motor caravan is defined as:
“A motor vehicle which is constructed or adapted for the carriage of passengers and their effects, and which contains, as permanently installed equipment, the facilities which are reasonably necessary for enabling the vehicle to provide mobile living accommodation for its users.”
How will it be enforced?
The council’s enforcement team will be responsible for enforcement of the restrictions.
Will this affect disabled parking?
No disabled parking bays are being removed as part of the proposal. Disabled badge holders can park in the council’s car parks free of charge.
On Marine Parade disabled badge holders will be permitted to park in the marked bays for 4 hours during the restricted periods and unlimited on Sundays and after 5pm.
Disabled badge holders other than motorhomes can also park in the areas with the motor home restriction in place as indicated by a single yellow line.
