Where to park in Lelystad

Paid parking in Lelystad only applies in the Stadshart, Lelycentre and on the coast, and within that the town is split into color zones. That color determines your rate and is on the signs along the road. On the street green is the most expensive at € 1.80 per hour; in the yellow area, Noorderwagenplein, Snijdershof and Maerlant, you pay € 1.00 per hour and get through a whole day on € 4.00.

Hours, Sundays and the exception

The clock runs from Monday through Saturday from 9.00 to 18.00. On the late-night shopping evening, Thursday, you pay until 21.00 in the Stadshart. On Sundays and public holidays parking is free, except in the pink area, because at Bataviahaven you pay 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

In the blue area, among others at Kubus parking site and at Gezondheidscentrum Heelhoek, there is no meter to be found: there you simply display a parking disc.

Paying by license plate

At the meters on the street you park by license plate: you enter your license plate and no longer put a ticket behind the windscreen. In the car parks your license plate is linked to your ticket when you drive in, so the barrier opens by itself after payment. Do keep your ticket, you need it for the pedestrian entrance. With SimplePark you start your parking action on the street as soon as you have parked and stop it when you drive off, so you pay for the time you are parked, in the unit the municipality uses, instead of choosing a time in advance.
