Re: Lausanne free parking?

Last time I was in Lausanne, there was plenty of free parking along Route des Plaines du Loup (opposite of the velodrome parking).
It's mostly blue and white parking along that street. The closest "free parking" that I'm aware of is the big parking in Chalet-a-Gobet (along the Route de Berne). I'm not sure how safe it is to leave the car there for several days though.

If there is no restriction mentioned below the table (like max. 3 h) it means the default limitation applies, which is 1.5 hours, starting from the time that you have set on the blue clock (made of paper). You are supposed to place this paper-clock behind the windscreen, showing the "time" of your arrival. (after X h :30 minutes and before X+1 hour : 00 mins you should set X+1:00.
After X h : 00 mins and before X h : 30 mins you should set X h: 30 mins, as time of arrival on this clock).
So if you arrived at e.g. 15:23, you can set 15:30 on the clock and stay till 17:00. If you arrived at 13:01, you can set 13:30 and park till 15:00.
So in the best case you can park for almost two hours.

Blue zone parking is ONE hour.

The way you set the time on your disk is as Henrikh describes. You always put the disk to the next half hour - arrive at 10:05 set it for 10:30 etc.

Blue zones are active from 08:00 - 12:00 and 13:30 - 18:00 from Monday to Saturday. There is no time limit on Sundays.

If you arrive after 18:00 you are free to say until 09:00 the next morning. You should put 08:00 on the disk.

Since parking is not controlled over lunch time, you can stay until 14:30 (put the disk for 13:30 when you arrive anytime after 12:00).
