Great control of camping Fort Orange

rijsbergen - With over fifty officials, all mobile homes will be checked on Wednesday at the infamous Fort Orange campsite in Rijsbergen. Between six and seven hundred caravans are checked whether they are safe enough to live, according to a spokeswoman for the municipality of Zundert. The campsite manager is instructed to restore violations. The participating officials are from various municipalities in West Brabant. The results of the check are expected Thursday.

Fort Orange is known among other things by a well-considered series that SBS6 has broadcast on the seriously neglected and dilapidated campsite. The series showed the shrinking living conditions of the inhabitants of impoverished mobile homes. The crowds at the campsite are traditionally growing at this time of the year due to the arrival of labor migrants working for farmers in the region.

The municipality of Zundert has been trying to close the campsite for years but has not been successful so far.
