Pisa ZTL: boundaries and hours<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Pisa\u2019s limited traffic zone (ZTL)<\/strong> covers the entire historic center on both sides of the Arno River and is bordered to the north by Via Brennero and to the south by Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II. Excluded from the ZTL is the Trammino bike path<\/strong>, which you can use to get around the city after parking your car, as well as Pisa’s two main train stations<\/strong>: Pisa Centrale and San Rossore to the northwest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Access restrictions in Pisa’s ZTL apply to all vehicles except mopeds and motorcycles, which can enter without a permit. However, electric rental vehicles can enter freely<\/strong> after requesting authorization from the ZTL Control Center, and craft and professional services that need access to Pisa\u2019s center for work can apply for a paid permit<\/strong>. Always check the Pisa City Council\u2019s website for the most up-to-date information.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

Where to find free and paid parking in Pisa<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Pisa is a small but highly touristic city; the historic center is particularly crowded with tourists eager to visit the monuments in the splendid Piazza del Duomo, also known as Piazza dei Miracoli<\/strong>, where the Baptistery, the Camposanto Monumentale, the Cathedral, and the Leaning Tower are located. For this reason, finding parking in Pisa<\/strong> might require some effort, especially if you’re looking for free spaces near the center.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

It may be worth booking a hotel in the center<\/strong>, as most places offer private parking or have agreements with the city for ZTL access. If you’re just passing through or prefer to stay outside the center, you can use central parking areas, which are paid from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.<\/strong>, with rates ranging from \u20ac2.50 to \u20ac3.50 per hour. Alternatively, private parking lots are available on the outskirts of the ZTL<\/strong>, including one near Piazza dei Miracoli and others at Piazza Andrea del Sarto and near Pisa Centrale Station. Don’t worry, though the city is easily walkable<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Getting to and from Pisa<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Pisa is well-connected to other Tuscan provinces, particularly Florence, located 90 km away<\/strong> and reachable in about an hour and twenty minutes via the Fi-Pi-Li highway. Closer by is Lucca<\/strong>, a true gem of art and architecture, just 20 km inland. You can reach Lucca via the A11 highway or take the SS12 for a more relaxed, scenic drive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
