Local speed limits need to be observed at all times, from 10 km/h in special zones to 50 km/h in urban areas, 60-80 km/h on arterial roads, and 100-110 km/h on highways. On-street parking is available in the CBD, a large car park is available at the airport, and commercial car parks are available in some downtown areas.
