Free parking
On-street parking in Gjøvik is normally free in the evening, at night and on Sundays and public holidays — but the charging hours are set by the municipality and shown on the sign, so always check the signs. Car parks and garages usually charge around the clock. The most reliable free options are park-and-ride sites and time-limited parking-disc spaces.
- Municipal parking spaces are free on Sundays and public holidays unless signs say otherwise.
- Røverdalen, Farverikvartalet and Nytorvet car parks charge around the clock, including Sundays and public holidays.
- In the inner centre zone, parking is normally free outside charging hours, after 16:00 on weekdays and Saturdays, unless signs say otherwise.
- Private parking areas and car parks may have different rates and terms than municipal spaces.
EV charging and parking
EVs pay the standard parking charge at municipal spaces. The municipality lists four municipal charging stations: Fastland with 10 spaces at 7.2 kW, Campus Arena Kallerud with 4 spaces up to 22 kW, Huntonstranda/Mjøsstranda with 9 spaces at 7.2 kW, and Nytorvet car park with 10 spaces up to 22 kW. Charging costs 3 kr/kWh around the clock and is paid with EasyPark. Røverdalen car park additionally has seven charging points, one adapted for disabled users. Follow signs for any parking charge in addition to charging.
Electric and hydrogen cars now normally pay the ordinary charge on municipal parking. There is no national free-or-discount rule — each municipality decides for itself whether to grant an exemption (Parking Regulations § 34), and more and more charge the full price. Check locally.
The national EV rules (charging bay vs. parking space, cross-parking, why the price varies) are on the EV parking page.
Disabled parking
With a valid disabled parking permit, you can park free at public paid spaces and use public reserved disabled bays. At public spaces with a time limit, you may normally stay up to twice the stated time unless a separate disabled-user limit is signed. The permit does not automatically apply at private parking areas or private car parks. Røverdalen has 10 disabled bays and one charging point adapted for disabled users.
The national disabled-parking rules (what the card gives you, applying, double time) are on the disabled parking page.
