In Switzerland, you must have a special sticker on your windscreen if you want to take a car on motorways and expressways. It is called motorway vignette and costs CHF 40. If you are coming to Switzerland from abroad, you can buy it at customs as you enter the country, or from selected points of sale or online before entering Switzerland.
Please note: If you are driving without a vignette, you will be fined (CHF 200) and will also have to buy the vignette itself (CHF 40).
Parking in Zurich is not easy. Please contact directly Jérôme Noir (jnoir@ethz.ch) if you plan to travel by car.
