Orange Zone (paid parking rules and when it’s free)
Some surrounding streets and areas use an Orange Zone paid parking system. In that zone you can park for up to 2 hours on Monday to Saturday, 09:00–18:00. The cost is €0.60 for the first hour and €1.20 for up to 2 hours.
Parking becomes free on Sundays and public holidays in the Orange Zone. If you want to avoid the time-pressure of zones and maximum stays, you can also check Mobypark for any future availability before you leave (there are currently no bookable spots for this location).
| Zone / area | Fee | Maximum stay | When rules apply | What you need |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Essendreef | Free | Not specified by zone info | Depends on the lot’s own signage | Follow the posted signs |
| Gravenplein (Parking Centrum) | Free | Not specified by zone info | Depends on the lot’s own signage | Follow the posted signs |
| Orange Zone | €0.60 (1 hour), €1.20 (up to 2 hours) | 2 hours | Mon–Sat 09:00–18:00 | Pay as required |
| Blue Zone | Typically time-limited via disc | 2 hours | Mon–Sat 09:00–18:00 | Parking disc required |
Blue Zone (parkeerschijf): required for up to 2 hours
In the Blue Zone (Blauwe Zone), a parking disc (parkeerschijf) is mandatory. You may park for a maximum of 2 hours, with rules applying on Monday to Saturday, 09:00–18:00.
If you don’t use a disc correctly (or you forget the disc altogether), you can receive a €30 fine for a day under local administrative sanctions (GAS).
Practical checklist to avoid tickets
- Arrive with your disc ready: if you’re using a Blue Zone spot, set the time immediately after parking.
- Respect the 2-hour limit in zone areas (Orange and Blue) during the stated daytime windows.
- Use the free lots first (Essendreef or Gravenplein/Gravendreef) if you arrive during busy periods.
- Don’t assume weekends are the same: Orange Zone parking is free on Sundays and public holidays, but Blue Zone disc rules still depend on the posted signage and the time window.
Accessible parking and larger vehicles
If you need accessible parking, Essendreef includes 2 accessible spaces. For groups or coaches, Essendreef also has 2 bus spaces. Choose the area that matches your vehicle type and then follow the on-site signage for any time limits.
