Parking and charging stations

A price capping system is implemented to ensure you never pay more than CHF 45.- per month (period from the first day of the month to the last), respectively never more than CHF 400.- per year (period from January 1 to December 31).

CHF 1.50

Half-day (7h-13h / 11h-17h)

CHF 2.50

Full day (7h-17h)

CHF 45.-

Monthly (full month)

Once you have reached your monthly (respectively annual) cap, parking authorizations that you purchase during the ongoing month will cost you CHF 0.-

A parking authorization is necessary on week days, from 7 am to 5 pm. Outside these hours, parking on green spaces is free.

Parking authorizations that have been paid but not used (“I bought a parking authorization for such day but in the end I did not come by car to work”) are not reimbursed.

Here a map of the main green parking spaces across the campus.

Campus users entitled to use green spaces are EPFL staff members (employees, postgraduates, apprentices) and permanent service providers (catering, security, cleaning, etc.), as well as 200 students selected according to their application file.

The parking authorizations are nominative (name of person + plate(s) number(s)). Occasional visitors are hence redirected to the white areas (with parking meters).

Security agents control parked vehicles by scanning number plates. A “negative” scan signals a vehicle without a valid parking authorization. Data is processed in accordance with the Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP).

Only parking tickets linked to information system failures under the responsibility of EPFL may be cancelled; all other parkings tickets cannot be cancelled.

We would like to remind you that parking outside the parking spots is not tolerated.

Please note that parking tickets that have not been paid will be forwarded to the police commission.

Renting a parking space costs CHF 2.50 per time slot (morning, afternoon or night). It is deducted from the reserving person’s Camipro account and automatically credited to the Camipro account of the holder of the allocated space.
