By bus

In order to facilitate transportation within Tarragona, the Municipal Transportation Agency operates bus lines. As a result, you are never more than a short ride away from any street, neighbourhood or beach in the city.

By car

Traffic in downtown Tarragona tends to be smooth, except in the most central areas at rush hour. To facilitate parking, many streets offer “zones” with different rates. A network of public and private parking facilities has also been created, allowing drivers to leave their vehicles just minutes away from any central point.

From 15 November 2021, new parking rules go into effect for the regulated parking zones in the city of Tarragona:

The first half-hour of parking in blue zones will cost just 20 cents, whereas previously this rate was 75 cents. 
The one-hour rate is being maintained at €1.15, while the price for two hours is going up from €3 to €4. 

With regard to the green zone for residents and the orange zone, rates remain the same. People entitled to park as residents will need to pay a fee of €15 to register or change the details that give them the status of resident. In these zones, the number of chargeable days is also being extended from Monday to Saturday inclusive, with just Sundays free of charge. Residents also still have the option of paying daily, quarterly or annually.
