    Park & Ride spaces inside paid car parks.

    Short answer

    The operator of the Ruoholahti car park says you show the QR code of your HSL mobile ticket or your HSL card at the reader as soon as you park, then register your licence plate on the touchscreen. The first 12 hours of Park & Ride cost €2.00, and longer parking is charged at the normal rates. The Tapiola Park car park in Espoo has the same €2.00 price for 12 hours from 1 January 2026, with spaces on levels P3 and P4. Spaces are limited; if they are full, you may leave free of charge within a short time, 15 minutes at Tapiola and one hour at Ruoholahti.
