 The road sign of the
paying "verona Park"
system by effeti,
1 more photos
Nearly all the streets around the historical city center are going to that (hated) system.
It's a "scratch and park".... you have to buy the needed ticket(s) in a shop or bar showing a "Verona park" banner (tickets available in 1 or half hour size), then you have to scratch them with the arriving time, and place them behind the windshield of your car.
Max 2 hours allowed... Well, you can pass again and - whistling but looking around -- change them.
Fares are 1,5 Euro/hour near the center, 1/hour in the rest.
I heard they want to place some regular automatic ticket machines but, at the end of 2005, i still haven't spotted any. *** 2007 update **** Machines are now in place and working, but the Verona Park system may be used as well.
The parking is free on sundays and other holydays.
As days hours, the paying period starts usually at 8am. The end varies from 8pm to midnight (near the center). Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

There are about 5 places shown as public parking inside the old city walls. First of all they are hard to find, secondly no doubt very costly and thirdly I am not sure you can drive into these areas. We tried and got shagged out after going around the arena.
We did find the closest public parking just one block outside the south walls on Corso Porto Nuova. Called Cittadelle. It cost 1.80 Euro an hour. I believe they all are around that price and the best bet is to park outside the walls. Otherwise, free parking is possible on the streets by the Arsenal, but a bit away from everything.

Don't miss to visit Lago di Garda, which is only 20km far from the town, or Soave where magnificent and huge Scaligeri fortification still stand. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

Verona is beautiful, but if you got a bit more time do not miss the beautiful surronding and the lake garda.......the best way to do that is renting a car or a bike, as pubblic are pretty bad ..... Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

In many streets and avenues is required a tiket for parking named "Verona Park".
The zone are often indicated by a very little blue label and by blue rows on the ground.
You can buy it in bar, tabac, news-stand and others.
Cost is 0.77 Euro for 1 hour, 0.39 E. for half hour.
You can use max 2 tikets for max 2 hours. Istructions are on the ticket's back side. Leave a Comment

The rest of the center, up to the circle of the old venetian/austrian walls, have some sort of restriction to car parking... mostly it's not free.
The bigger free car parking is, in fact, just outside these walls, on the northern side of Porta Palio. See the gate in the picture as seen from inside. The parking is on the right of it as seen in the picture.
On a map, just spot the line made by Corso Porta Palio - Corso Castelvecchio - Corso Cavour - Porta Borsari - Piazza Erbe, and the parking is on the external (South west) side of the line.
Oh, by the way, these streets are not in a line for a chance... This is the exact axis of the Roman Postumia road.... a little more than two millenniums old. Every expansion of the town produced a new gate, but on the same axis.
From the carpark, Castelvecchio is 10 minutes of easy walk, piazza Erbe 10/15 more.
The parking is crowded by commuters car in the morning (but yet it's not impossibile to find a place) and more free from afternoon. Of course it is unguarded, so don't leave anything valuable in the car.
User of GoogleEarth? i don't know how to attach a Placemark for a direct viewing, but here is the position of the entrance (it's in good resolution)
45°26'8.67"N
10°58'46.58"E Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

 a typical NCC little
plate by effeti
These cars (service always more flexible, expecially for long distances, and sometimes cheaper than a regular taxi) may be very useful if you can share it, and have to go to places not so easy to reach with public transports. These service have a regular license, and the car has a little NCC plate like the one in the picture (every town may have a few difference)
I know only a company based in Verona. My wife tried them twice when i was away for short distance trips and found them reliable and reasonally priced. See the link below.
You have to book them to be sure, but just in case you may try and call the cell phone number and see if they have a car available. Their base is at 15 min (max) from the main train station, and 20 from the airpot. They should be able to give you a fixed price (of course based on distance and time of the day) for your transfert.
So, depending on your needs and pockets, such a service may be a plus when coming back on your own from the opera late at night, if your accomodation isn't in town, a trasfert from airport to Garda Lake, and so on... See the site for more. Leave a Comment

This private, covered and obviously not free multistory car park is really near the Roman Arena (500 meter exactly).
It's four storeys, 3 of wich underground. Open 24/24 and 7/7.
For legal reasons of liability the park is declared "unguarded", but with an extra fee (5.2 euro) the car becames guarded.... And of course they fully respond of it.
The car entrance and exit is from the little via Kessler (south west of the buildig) but the walking entrance exit is towards north and the Arena.
For the price list, see picture #3
The carpark is handy for any visit to the center, but expecially for a opera night.
To avoid long lines at paying time after the operas, they sell on request during the day pre-payed cards allowing you to stay for the opera, and directly collect the car when it's over, without any queue. The price, 13 Euro, is the same of a whole day....
Take a look from the sky at the building (the green with 2 circles, ... it's a restaurant and pizzeria in a garden on the ceiling) by clicking here (google maps). Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home
