Purchasing your car park ticket

Car parking prices can be found on our Station Information pages. Select the station you wish to park at from the drop down list which will automatically refer you to the National Rail Station Facilities page where you can view car park charges for that station.

Pay in advance

To ‘make travel simpler’ we have introduced a variety of ways to purchase your car park ticket. You can make a purchase before you park in your chosen car park simply by contacting us in one of following ways:

 

 

Pay at the car park

If you prefer a little more flexibility and would like to purchase your ticket on the day you may use a pay and display machine located in any of our car parks. We have installed a fleet of car park machines that accept not only cash but also debit cards making your purchases simpler by eliminating the need to find change.

Park Mark

To demonstrate our commitment to you by making your experience of our station car parks simpler, we are working hard towards achieving 30 Park Mark awards across our car park network by the end of 2009. This mark demonstrates that a car park has measures in place to deter crime and anti-social behaviour, and has been risk assessed by the police.

Safety and Security

We recognise that safety and security are important to you and therefore have introduced a lone traveller scheme allowing assistance from ‘car to train’ at 23 key station car parks across the network.

Below is a list of our 63 NCP managed car parks and the facilities available to you:
