Now do cars

Parking in the city center of Amsterdam will cost you more than 60 euro for a full day. But if you park at the edge of the city, close to the highway exit and next to a metro station, it will cost you 1 euro.

While it is no outright ban, it is one of the various ways the city is pushing cars away from the center.
