Parking in Zurich

Parking in Zurich – always an issue. All those who come to the city by car can use Zurich’s parking guidance system to help them find the closest available parking space. The guidance system has been in operation since 2001 and is very popular with those who use their car to get around in the city. The Zurich City Association is one of the project partners.
