Rivas-Vaciamadrid low-emission zone (ZBE): rules, labels & fines
Rivas-Vaciamadrid applies traffic restrictions around schools that it presents as 'low emission zones'. A VOX group motion published by the council states that no municipal ordinance formally regulates a ZBE in Rivas, that the council confirmed this and called the scheme an internal traffic-management measure, and that 13,061 fines were processed in 2024. The restrictions are not based on DGT labels. The motion to scrap the zones was rejected (11 votes to 13).

Notes: Sole source is an opposition (VOX) motion published on the council website, including the vote result (rejected 11–13). Its claims (no ZBE ordinance; council called it internal traffic management; fines) are the group's statements, not an official council position. Legal status as a ZBE under RD 1052/2022 is therefore 'unknown'.
