Where to park in Haarlemmermeer
Haarlemmermeer is a municipality with a centre, an airport and a handful of business parks, and the parking policy follows those differences. Around Hoofddorp three tariff zones sit as rings around each other: zone A for the shopping heart and the station, zone B for the districts around it and zone C for the outer edge. The further from the centre, the lower the rate: in zone C you pay not even a euro per hour.
At Schiphol Centrum you can short-stay on two street zones, at the highest rate in the municipality. For longer parking there are the airport's own P1, P3 and P4 sites, with their own rates and booking rules. At Nieuw-Vennep station it is the other way round: there your car is free for the first 24 hours, provided you register your licence plate.
A rate that rises per hour
What is special about Hoofddorp is that zone A and zone B use a progressive rate. You do not pay the same every hour, but more and more the longer you stand. For half an hour of shopping that is favourable; if you stand in the centre all day, you come off expensive. Zone C does work with one fixed amount per hour, and week and year tickets are also for sale there.
The paid hours are the same in most zones: from Monday to Thursday and on Saturday until 18.00, on Friday through to 21.00 for late-night shopping, and on Sunday from 12.00 to 18.00. The business parks differ: Beukenhorst West and Oost apply on weekdays only, and on Business Park Oude Meer paid parking always applies, sometimes with a maximum parking duration of one or three hours according to the signs.
Paying and enforcement
Everywhere it goes by licence plate: at the meter or via an app. Even where you stand for free, such as in the first 24 hours at Nieuw-Vennep station, you have to register your licence plate, otherwise it counts as unpaid. If the meter does not work, you report that to the operator.
With SimplePark you start your session as soon as you stop and you stop it when you drive away, and you pay by the minute. With a rate that gets higher every hour, that is exactly the difference: you settle for the time you actually stood there, not for the hour you just slipped into.
