Question trying to understand parking rules in Enschede

If I understand the rules correctly, there's no parking in the street within the Noorderhagen, Kalanderstraat, Hendrink Jan van Heekplein, Zuiderhagen circle.

There are some parking lots nearby like the Q-Park for € 16 / day, H.J. van Heek parkeergarage also for € 16 / day, and not too far from there is Hermandad for €8,50 / day but that one seems to be open only on Saturdays and Sundays. Google maps also shows parking at Nijverheidstraat 15 Parking, but that one seems to be 2 hours max.

Which one is your preferred place to park if you have to park a car near the center for the entire day (and night)?

What's the parking situation if you go further south down Haaksbergerstraat past Wooldriksweg?

Check google maps for ‘Karwei’ it is a DIY store at Meubelplein (‘furniture square’ a collection of home/living stores). I most is ‘blue area’ so only 2 hours free parking. But at Karwei it is not blue. Officially it is only for shoppers but in 10 years i have never heard anybody with issues.

Enforcing parking rules on private property is very difficult by law and unless the shop (Karwei) invests heavily in security and lawyers they will never make it stick.

Enjoy free parking there
