Parking in Ticino

lundi 3 août 2015

Hello to everyone,

I would like to ask you a question about parking in Switzerland, in particular in Ticino.

As far as I know, blue lines mean free park with the permit disc (1 hour or so, depending on the zone), while the white ones means that you have to pay (Source: Avis rent).

While in Chiasso, I was a bit confused since many park areas are without information. I saw a parking lot with white lines without any machine for the tickets and a parking with blue lines and no information about the maximum time that you can stay (in a parking lot out of the city center there was written "4 hours", but I guess that in the center it's about 60 minutes).

The confusion increased when I read this article, in which the say "Parking spaces along white lines are free for parking".

I always park my car in the blue area but sometimes happens that I stay longer than what the permit disc indicates. A friends of mine parked in the white area without machines (should it be free?) for 12 hours and got a fine. This 2 areas are closed each other and a bit out of the city center.

I would be so pleased if you can help me to discover how it works in Switzerland :confused:
