Park and Ride - P+R in Amsterdam

The Park and Ride (P+R) parking facilities are located on the outskirts of Amsterdam near the ring A-10. The idea is that you park your car for a low fee of 8,- per 24 hours (as from February 2011), and you receive a special public transport ticket, a chipcard so called OV card, to get to the city centre, and to return to the parking where you left your car (special OV cards for up to 5 people per one car parked). These are specially made OV cards not suitable for your communications throughout the city, made only for your transfer to and from the city centre. They are valid for 4 days. You will therefore need another OV card to use the public transport during your stay in Amsterdam. With an additional payment you may purchase 48 and 72 hours public transport tickets. You may park your car at the P+R sit up to the maximum of four days. You should inform the parking service about it, so you will be receiving public transport tickets for all these days. As they are heavily subsidized, you must return your used public transport tickets to the P+R parking service at your departure, when paying your parking fees for the whole stay. P+R car parks are, open 7 days a week, 24 hours with the exception of the P+R Bos en Lommer (from 7 am to 10 pm). They are all supervised but we do not advise you to leave anything of value in your car because break-in's are common in Amsterdam.
