Getting to Venice by car
Arrivare in auto
It's better if you decide not to arrive to Venice by car but if you really want to - or maybe you ought to! - you must leave your car in one of the car parks near Venice, Piazzale Roma (the bus terminal) or Tronchetto and then you can continue by foot or by boat...
It is easy to reach Venice by car with the following motorway and road connections: A4 from Trieste and from Turin, A27 from Belluno, A13 from Bologna, and the state roads SS 309 Romea from the Adriatic Coast, SS 14 from Trieste, SS 13 from Treviso, SS 11 from Padua.
Venice is always clearly sign posted.
Once you have arrived near the lagoon, get on to the Ponte della Libertà - a long straight line with two lanes linking Venice to the mainland -follow the signs for Venice and you will arrive at Piazzale Roma. Here you have to leave your car and start your adventure in Venice, on foot or by waterbus.
Three are the parking areas at Piazzle Roma: the Autorimessa Comunale, the Garage San Marco and the small open air car park Sant'Andrea.
One alternative is the large car park on the Tronchetto island. From the Tronchetto Island you can reach Venice by waterbus line 82.
Another possibility is to leave your car in Mestre - parking it in the small car parks before you reach the Ponte della Libertà or in those opposite to the railway station of Mestre and reach Venice by bus (Line 2) or by train (ten minutes ride).
