What is Park & Go, and where can I park in La Línea to walk into Gibraltar?
Short answer
Park & Go is a Government of Gibraltar web page, launched on Thursday 29 October 2026, that maps seven car parks in La Línea near the frontier, from Santa Bárbara, two minutes' walk from the pedestrian entrance, to Trino Cruz, 18 minutes away. Constitución and Centro match Telpark's two La Línea car parks, where you can pre-book in the Telpark app and enter by number plate recognition.
Detailed answer
What Park & Go shows
The Ministry of Transport launched Park & Go on Thursday 29 October 2026 to encourage people driving to Gibraltar to leave the car in La Línea and walk in. The Park & Go page lists seven car parks close to the frontier, with their size and the walking distance to the pedestrian entrance to Gibraltar, nearest first:
- Santa Bárbara: 680 spaces, 150 metres, 2 minutes' walk.
- Constitución: 999 spaces, 200 metres, 3 minutes' walk.
- Focona: 450 spaces, 200 metres, 3 minutes' walk.
- Centro: 174 spaces, 400 metres, 6 minutes' walk.
- Alcaidesa Marina: 300 spaces, 750 metres, 10 minutes' walk.
- Park & Ride: 587 spaces, 850 metres, 12 minutes' walk.
- Trino Cruz: 80 spaces, 1.2 km, 18 minutes' walk.
Select a car park on the map or in the list to see its walking route, with Google Maps directions for driving there.
The page also shows bus stops and taxi ranks near the frontier, including the Frontier Terminus stop on routes 5 and 10, links to bike and e-scooter hire, and a second map of bicycle parking at 50 locations from the frontier to Europa Point. It is in English, Spanish, French and German.
Park & Go does not give prices or opening hours. Street parking in La Línea's Blue Zone is pay and display.

Using the Telpark app
To pre-book, choose the car park in the app, then the start date, arrival time, number of days, vehicle and payment method. The date and time cannot be changed after booking; the number plate can be changed up to five minutes before the booking starts.
With Express Entry, you register your number plate in the app, the barrier reads the plate and opens, and the stay is charged to the app, with no ticket.
Telpark also sells Multipass packs of 5, 10 or 20 passes, each covering up to 12 hours and valid for 12 months, and monthly passes. Telpark does not publish whether a pre-booked stay costs less than paying on the day, so compare the price in the app before you book.
Walking in
Since Wednesday 15 July 2026 there have been no routine immigration or customs checks at the land frontier, but carry a passport or, for EU citizens, a national identity card.
From the frontier, the walk into town follows the same route as from the airport. The airport to town centre FAQ describes it, with a free audio guide to the runway crossing, RAF Gibraltar, the Cross of Sacrifice and Landport. Walking back to your car, play the clips in reverse order.
