Traffic Information

Saint Petersburg is a major transport hub with an extensive road infrastructure that makes it highly suitable to discover with a rental car. And if you're looking to leave city limits, it will come as good news that Saint Petersburg is connected to the rest of Russia and Europe by numerous highways. The city is an important transport corridor linking Scandinavia to Russia and Eastern Europe with E18 leading to Helsinki, E20 to Tallinn, E95 to Pskov, Kiev and Odessa, and E105 south to Moscow.

The Saint Petersburg Ring Road is the main highway encircling the city and will take you in and out of the Russian jewel with ease. However, due to common traffic it is advised to avoid driving during rush hours AM and PM. Paid parking on-street is available throughout the city.
