The expansion of regulated parking zones in Alicante has faced political scrutiny due to administrative delays. The PSOE party has demanded explanations from Mayor Luis Barcala regarding the four-year delay in a contract intended to add 3,077 new regulated spaces. Spokesperson Trini Amorós criticized the omission of the project from recent Contracting Board sessions and suggested the new regulations, which include mandatory payments during midday and Saturdays, are driven by revenue-raising motives.

In a separate development within the province, Repsol’s Waylet application has launched a service allowing drivers to reserve parking spaces in 16 locations across Alicante, including Benidorm, Altea, and Torrevieja. The app enables users to check availability and prices while offering a loyalty feature.
