Parcheggio De Hoef, Amersfoort

If you’re looking for parking De Hoef, your first step is checking the local street rules—because in the Hoefkwartier area (part of De Hoef) parking “on the road” has been restricted since 1 January 2025. Below you’ll find what’s allowed, when street parking is paid, and the practical alternatives if you want to avoid fines.

Street parking restrictions in Hoefkwartier (part of De Hoef)

From 1 January 2025, there is a parking ban along the road in all streets of Hoefkwartier. That means you can’t park at the roadside in the usual way—you must use the places that are officially designated for parking.

• Allowed: parking on the public parking areas (including the areas near Disketteweg and Inputplein), on other marked parking bays in Hoefkwartier, or on your own private property.
• Not allowed: parking on the carriageway/roadside where the ban applies (risk of a fine).
• Exception: in the eastern part of Modemweg you may still park on the carriageway for a limited section—around 40 metres after the intersection with Hardwareweg.

If you’re arriving soon and the marked bays near Hoefkwartier are full or inconvenient, you can also check Mobypark to see whether any private options become available later—but for now, this area doesn’t have bookable supply.

To be safe, still check the local sign at the exact parking spot—holiday rules can differ for garages and certain restricted locations.

How to park without getting a ticket in De Hoef

• Don’t improvise in Hoefkwartier: if you see that you’re in a street covered by the 2025 roadside ban, park only in designated bays/parking areas or on private property.
• Match the zone and time window: for D1 in De Hoef, paid street parking applies during Mon–Sat 06:00–11:00—outside those hours, rules may change by zone.
