On highways A4 from west or east, A13 until you reach Padova and
then A4 from the South, or A27 from the North. When you arrive at
Piazzale Roma you can leave your car in one of the car parks, or
go to the big car park of Tronchetto island. From Tronchetto you
can reach Venice by Vaporetto n° 82 (during the day) and
line N (during the night). Otherwise you can take a ferry
boat (line n° 17) from Tronchetto to the Lido.
An alternative is
to leave your car in Mestre. There are both open and covered
parking directly in front of the train station and they cost a
fraction of what it costs to leave your car in Venice. You can
then reach Venice by train (departure every 5-10 minutes) or by
numerous buses.
S.Lucia (Santa Lucia) is the name of Venice's Train Station. If
you get off in Mestre, Venice then you haven't reached Venice yet.
You must first cross the Liberty Bridge and Venice is the end of
the line. S.Lucia Train Station is located in the sestiere
of Cannaregio. The public transortation, called Vaporetto, has
stops for lines n° 1 and n° 52 (to your right as you leave the
station) and n° 82 (to your left as you leave the station) on the
Grand Canal.
The Marco Polo airport, located about 13 km from Venice, is
connected to the city by bus n° 5 (departures at intervals of
every half hour), by airport shuttle (faster but more expensive,
leaving every hour), and by taxi.
