Notes: Press only; the BOP text was not located. Reported BOP publication dates differ (26 or 27 May 2026). The fine start date conflicts between sources. If the informative period started on publication, fines may begin around now (late November 2026), but this is not confirmed. A press report also suggests the TSJA ruling on Málaga's resident-based ZBE rule could affect Cádiz's model; no ruling against Cádiz was found. cad-motor16 was seen only as a search result.
