Street Parking in Madrid

If you decide to park on the street, you’ll have to pay attention to the two different types, the blue zone and the green zone, marked by blue or green lines, which have time limits.

Can I drive in Madrid?

If you’re planning on visiting Madrid and coming by car, you should pay attention to certain aspects regarding driving, traffic, and parking. Despite the enormous number of vehicles on the streets of Madrid every day and the large influx of people that come from outside the city—both for work during the week and tourism on the weekends—driving in Madrid is still something everyone should try at least once.

Madrid Central

Madrid Central took effect on November 30, 2018 and only residents and authorized vehicles (for example, those heading straight to a car park within this area) are allowed to enter and drive through this limited traffic zone. Created to reduce the high pollution levels produced by the constant traffic in the center of Madrid, only the most privileged can enter this area. And… You could be one of them! All vehicles with environmental badges that want to park in one of our car parks in the center of Madrid can drive in Madrid Central.

If you want to know which vehicles can enter Madrid Central, which streets form the limits of Madrid Central, and much more, we explain everything here.

Pollution in Madrid

As we mentioned above, Madrid Central was born from the need to reduce pollution in Madrid due to the constant traffic in the capital. Madrid Central is active every day of the week, every hour. However, if you’re going to Madrid by car, you need to know if you can drive in Madrid. Don’t worry, we’ll explain everything!

When the city exceeds normal levels of CO2, the City Council of Madrid activates pollution protocols. While the protocols are active, there are more traffic restrictions due to the pollution in Madrid. The Plan of Action for Episodes of Carbon Dioxide Pollution took effect in 2018 and has 5 different phases according to the level of pollution. If you’re going to drive in Madrid, you need to know your vehicle’s environmental badge. Depending on the badge your vehicle has, you could have restrictions in the center of Madrid while one of the phases of the pollution plan is active.

If you want us to let you know each time a pollution phase in Madrid is activated, download our app and we’ll send you a notification each time the City Council puts one in place.
