Sevilla by car
Seville is flat and compact, and the streets of the old town were laid out long before cars. Most drivers leave the car on the edge and walk in.
Driving in Sevilla
Sevilla is reached by A-4, A-49 and SE-30. Sevilla has a low-emission zone: check the sticker rules before driving into the centre. Parking in the centre is paid and marked by zone.
Where to park
An unguarded car park sits opposite Av de Málaga; men loitering at its gate who claim to be attendants and hand out no receipt are running a scam. Seville is known for break-ins, so nothing should be left in a parked car.
Arriving by road
Together the SE-30 and A-4 form a fast ring around roughly two-thirds of Seville, while the northern side is closed only by ordinary arterial roads with level junctions, including the Ronda Urbana Norte and the SE-20. The A-92 comes in from Granada and Antequera, and driving into the old city is difficult though not impossible.
From the airport without a car
The Tussam EA bus (Especial Aeropuerto) starts outside Arrivals at the airport and follows Av de Kansas City to Santa Justa railway station. It then circles the southern edge of the centre with four stops, also calling at Prado de San Sebastián, and finishes at the Plaza de Armas bus station.
