Belgium: parking ban in the Barchon rest area
In view of the serious problem of illegal immigrants trying to sneak on board parked trucks at night as stowaways, the governor of the Liège province has imposed a parking ban on vehicles over 3.5 t in the Barchon rest area on the E40 motorway in the direction of Brussels. The ban is in effect between 8:00 pm and 7:00 am in the period from 23rd October to 7th November. The rest area can be used by other vehicles during the night.
