How do I travel to and around Antwerp?

Please note: from 1 August 2023, the parking policy in the City of Antwerp will change. Read more on Parking on the street | Smart ways to Antwerp.

Where in Antwerp can I park my car?

Antwerp is a bustling city with many residents and visitors. And all these residents and visitors also require a lot of parking spaces for cars. From 1 August 2023, new parking rules will apply in Antwerp: only residents with a parking permit may park in the historic centre. Outside this zone, paid parking applies in Antwerp. If you plan to spend a few hours in the city, it is more interesting to park at a free P+R on the outskirts of the city, or in one of the public paid car parks. 

There are currently 9 P+Rs in and around Antwerp where you can park your car for free. From there, you have a quick connection to the city centre by tram, bus or bicycle. You can find an overview of P&Rs and connections to the city centre here.

If you would like to take a day trip by car to the Antwerp city centre, we recommend that you park your car in one of the many public car parks. A public car park is usually less expensive than parking on the street. You can find an overview of paying car parks in each district here.

Antwerp city centre and part of the Linkeroever enforce a low emission zone. If you are planning to visit Antwerp by car, check here whether you can enter the low emission zone. Use the route planner to prepare your visit to Antwerp. You get a clear overview of the different routes, combinations of transport modes, and time indications to reach your destination smoothly.
