Local residents of Shell Bakenbergseweg in Arnhem are at odds with the municipality over what is lawfully allowed at the petrol station and what is not. To get an answer to this question, an appeal procedure is under way in court.

This is written by several local Arnhem media. What started in 2024 with a permit application for three new wash boxes has grown into a legal dispute over what is lawfully allowed at the filling station location. According to local residents, it is not about an opposition to the petrol station itself, but about preventing past ambiguities from being automatically implemented in future permits and zoning plans. Before any new services appear on the site, they say, it should be clear what is actually legally allowed on site. The municipality argues that granted permits and zoning plans are correctly aligned.

Looking again

The land on which the petrol station stands is owned by the municipality of Arnhem. The current lease runs until 1 December 2035. According to several councillors, that could be the time to look again at the future of the site. For local residents, however, one question is central first: what is legally permissible and what is not? The outcome of the ongoing appeal proceedings should clarify that, they say.

Shell Bakenbergseweg in Arnhem is part of the Haan Tankstations network. The filling station has a Shell shop, wash hall, trailer rental and textile launderette. Euro 95, Euro 98 and diesel are available at the pump.
