Blue Zones

Parking in the “blue Zones” or blue parking areas in Lucerne. Free for a limited time.

 

The general rules are if you park Monday to Friday between 8:00 and 11:30 and between 13:30 and 18:00 you can park in the blue zones for one hour.

between 11:30 and 13:30, you can stay till 14:30

between 18:00 and 8:00, you can park until 9:00

 

❌ You can’t stay longer (than the sign indicates) only moving the disc forward is not permitted! You have to leave the parking area and then park again (in new space) – otherwise you may be in for a fine!

❌ You can’t book and be assured of free spot.

❌ Parking lots are not guarded also there is pedestrian traffic around.

❌ You need to have a parking disc.

 

You may be fined for:

• Your parking disc not being completely visible (it should be displayed in the front windscreen by the driver’s seat)
• You haven’t choose correctly the time on the disc clearly
• You’ve exceed the allowed parking time
• You’ve changed the arrival time but not moved your car

---

 

White zones

Are also limited. The maximum time is indicated by road sings and you need to pay at the closest parking meter.

Some white lines are marked as “Besucher”  for shops or apartments and you are entitled to park in these places if you are visiting those places.

 

❌ Located on the street, so your vehicle always gets dirty.

❌ Specific, limited stop time.

❌ How far away will you find a vacancy? You really never know.

---

Yes. Application Share.P moves parking places on the street from Blue or White zones to the city’s underground.

Yellow Zones

These are private or reserved for companies and may only be used by them or their clients and guests.

Yellow markings with crosses mean no parking and yellow lines by the side of the road mean no waiting at the roadside. Parking on main roads outside of towns is prohibited.

Paid parking is the norm in Switzerland

especially around popular places like rail stations, hotels and town centers. Even as a hotel guest, you often need to pay for parking separately. Count on CHF 10 to 50 per day. Parking in the larger cities is quite expensive: up to CHF 4 per hour. Rates are very dependent on location, number of hours, indoor or outdoor parking. If you are used to free parking near a shopping center, in Zurich you can pay 6 francs and more for just 2 hours of parking.

Paying is done in several ways:

• Hotel guests can pay for their parking costs during the check-out procedure.
• In public parking garages you’ll find machines. Before you leave, you’ll have to enter the parking ticket you received when driving in, and you’ll pay in cash or with debit/credit card.
• On many parking lots you’ll find parking metres. The older versions require Swiss coins. Many are digital though, allowing you to enter the number of your parking lot and to pay in cash or by debit/credit card.
• A growing number of parking lots can be paid with mobile apps, linked to your credit card or bank account. You’ll have to enter your parking lot and parking duration. Examples of apps used in Switzerland are Park Now, ParkingPay, EasyPark, Sepp and Twint.

Parking payment methods

•  only coins
•  coins and cards
•  coins, cards, and notes
•  applications

---

Whole day ticket

Parking the car in business time. If you are in the city for just a few days, you can use the guest parking cart. The cost of such a card is 15 francs per day, and you can stay in the blue zone the whole day. You can buy a ticket online and put it under the windshield at the driver’s seat. However, this does not guarantee a free parking space on the street! you can still circle the city, wasting time and producing unnecessary CO2.

ShareP comes with solution! Now you can book your parking spot like apartment in AirBnB!

We offer reliable reservations, quickly online payments and wireless independent garage door opening.
