P+R Gaasperplas

P+R Gaasperplas is one of the Parkeren en Reizen (Park and Travel) multi-storey car parks in Amsterdam. You park your car at a P+R location at the edge of town and travel into town by public transport. Camping is not allowed.

Rules for P+R.

On arrival
1. Collect a car park ticket as you go in. Please don’t use a credit card at the entrance, it does not provide a P+R deduction.
2. Hand over your parking ticket to the P+R car park attendant and ask for a P+R chip card(s). The car park attendant will code your parking ticket and give you a free P+R chip card to use on public transport.
3. Proceed to the OV hall and check in. For instructions on how to use the P+R chip card see overleaf.
4. Don't forget to check out when exiting the vehicle. When visiting the city, be sure not to lose your P+R chip card. If you do not use your chip card, or use it incorrectly, you will no longer be entitled to a discount and will have to pay the normal parking fee. Please note: The P+R chip card is only valid for travelling to and from the P+R location and not for general use in the city centre. Staying late in the city? Please note: The P+R tickets are not valid on the city's night busses. On exiting, check what time the last bus, metro, tram or train departs.

On leaving
1. Use your P+R chip card or NS card for the return journey. Hold your P+R chip card in front of the card reader when entering and exiting the vehicle.
2. Return your parking ticket and the used P+R chip cards to the P+R desk. The attendant will mark your car park ticket for the P+R tariff. You can only pay the attendant with a pin or credit card. Cash payments can be made in a point-of-payment terminal.
3. Use the car park ticket when you drive out. The P+R tariff is good for a maximum of four consecutive days (96 hours). After 96 hours you will have to pay the normal parking tariff. Please note: Different times apply if you are using a P+R chip card for the train (NS). Your train ticket is valid for one day (from 04:00 to 03:59).

Do not use your credit card upon entering the garage. Only the use of a ticket will give you the P+R discount. (You pay €8,- and receive up to 5 free public transport tickets to go into town with. Hold on to the used tickets: you're required to show them for the discount fee.)
