Colored Lines on the street

Italy has different coloured lines on the roads.
yellow line
reserved for residents, deliveries, taxis or those who hold a handicap permit.

Blue line
metered parking; you’ll need to find the machine, which should be close to the space, and pay for the length of time you’d like to stay and then place the ticket on your dashboard.

White lines
you can park for free, however, if the sign reads ‘Solo Autorizzati’ or ‘Solo Residenti’ the spaces are only for authorised residents.

Pink spaces
for pregnant women or parents travelling with infants.

Limited Traffic Zones

These zones are called ‘Zona Traffico Limitato’ or ‘ZTL’. You need the appropriate authorisation. Your accommodation can arrange access for you.
