Where to park in Woerden
On-street parking in Woerden city center is expensive and short: € 3.20 per hour, with a maximum parking time that differs per zone. In zone 4400, the city center, you may stay 3 hours; on Leidsestraatweg (zone 4404) 2 hours and on Rijnstraat (zone 4401) only half an hour. Zone 4403 is the odd one out: there paid parking runs longer, an hour costs € 6.20 and you always pay per hour.
If you stay longer, you are better off going into a car park. In Castellum and on Defensie-eiland the daytime hourly rate is € 2.50, which is much cheaper than the street. You may also stay as long as you like. Still cheaper is the P+R on Houttuinen south of the station: 245 spaces where parking is free and from where you walk into the city center in about 10 minutes. On the north side is Q-Park's P+R Spoorlaan, with 172 spaces a 5-minute walk away; combined with a train journey that is free for the first 24 hours.
Hours and free days
Paid parking applies from Monday to Saturday from 10.00 to 18.30; in zone 4403 until 22.00. On Sundays and public holidays on-street parking is free. That includes New Year's Day, Good Friday, Easter Monday, King's Day, Liberation Day, Ascension Day, Whit Monday, Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
In the car parks it works the other way round: there it is often free at night and in the evening and you pay during the day. On Sunday and shopping Sunday parking there is free all day.
License plates and paying
Parking in Woerden is run by ParkeerService. Permits are digital only now, and officers scan the license plates of parked cars to see whether payment has been made. So make sure your license plate is correct in your parking action. The municipality settles per 6 minutes at the meter and per minute in a parking app: with SimplePark you start the parking action when you have parked and you stop it when you drive away, so in a zone with a half-hour maximum parking time you do not buy time you do not use.
