ORA parking zones: Santa Catalina left out — who will clean up the consequences?
Why Santa Catalina Is Not Included in the ORA Expansion
Santa Catalina is left out of the ORA expansion for now as Palma considers a separate parking reorganisation.
Published: June 12, 2026

Answer
Why is Santa Catalina in Palma not included in the new ORA parking expansion?
The planned expansion of the blue ORA parking zone does not currently cover the northern part of Santa Catalina. The town hall appears to be focusing first on reorganising the narrow streets in the neighbourhood rather than extending paid parking there straight away. That means local parking rules may change in a different way, with one-sided parking in some streets being considered instead.
