What to know about driving around Warsaw
Parking, roads, rules and a few curiosities that help anyone renting a car in Warsaw. Correct as of September 2026.
Paid parking zone
In Śródmieście and parts of Wola, Ochota, Mokotów, Żoliborz and Praga, parking is paid Monday to Friday from 8:00 to 20:00. Parking is free at weekends and on public holidays. The first hour costs PLN 4.50, the second PLN 5.40, the third PLN 6.40, and each further hour PLN 4.50 again. You can pay by card at the meter or in an app such as moBILET, SkyCash or AnyPark. Parking fees are paid by the renter.
Clean Transport Zone
All of Śródmieście and parts of the neighbouring districts form the Clean Transport Zone. Since 1 January 2026 a diesel may enter if it meets Euro 5 or was made in 2009 or later, and a petrol car if it meets Euro 3 or was made in 2000 or later. Entering in a car that does not qualify means a PLN 500 fine. The thresholds rise again in 2028. If you rent an older diesel and plan to drive in the centre, ask us when you book whether that car may enter the zone.
Park and Ride by the metro
Park and Ride car parks operate by the Młociny, Wawrzyszew, Marymont, Wilanowska, Ursynów and Stokłosy metro stations. With a valid 24-hour, weekend or longer public transport ticket, parking there is free. It is an easy way to leave the car and take the metro into the centre instead of hunting for a space in the paid zone.
Speed limits
The limit in built-up areas is 50 km/h day and night. The old 60 km/h night limit was scrapped on 1 June 2021. On dual-carriageway expressways the limit is 120 km/h and on motorways 140 km/h. With a trailer, the limit on expressways and motorways is 80 km/h.
Poland's longest road tunnel
The southern Warsaw bypass, the S2, runs under Ursynów through a 2,335 m tunnel. It opened on 20 December 2021 and is still the longest road tunnel in Poland. Each bore has three traffic lanes and an emergency lane, and average speed cameras enforce an 80 km/h limit.
A2 to Łódź and Konin toll-free
A passenger car can take the A2 motorway from Warsaw via Łódź all the way to Konin without paying tolls. Tolls start on the section from Konin to Poznań and further west, where you pay at the toll gates by card or cash.
Chopin Airport
Chopin Airport is about 10 km from the city centre and is the busiest airport in Poland. In 2025 it handled a record 24.1 million passengers. Warsaw's second airport, Modlin, is about 40 km north of the city.
Maria Skłodowska-Curie Bridge
The Northern Bridge, officially the Maria Skłodowska-Curie Bridge, is about 795 m long and links Bielany with Tarchomin. Cars have used it since 2012, and a tram line runs down its middle.

Questions about a rental car in Warsaw
- Where can I collect a rental car in Warsaw?
- At our office at Wiejska 12/3, free of charge. At Chopin Airport we hand the car over for 80 PLN, and we deliver it to an address in Warsaw for 120 PLN. We agree the place and time when you book.
- Which car can I rent in Warsaw for seven people?
- In our fleet, seven seats are available in Mazda 5 1.8 MZR and Mercedes-Benz Viano 3.0 CDI. We hand each of them over on the same terms, and the calendar on the car page shows free dates. A second driver is added to the contract at no extra charge, which helps a lot on a long trip with a group.

- Can I rent a car in Warsaw for a month or longer?
- Yes. We rent for at least 5 days and at most 120 days, and the longer the rental, the lower the daily rate. The mileage allowance adds up across the whole rental, so a longer term gives you proportionally more.
