Photo: [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com) ## Parking Near Big Ben on Bridge Street Big Ben is at Bridge Street, Millbank, City of Westminster, SW1A 2JR, where the practical choice is [Q-Park](https://www.parksy.com/blog/q-park-united-kingdom-review-pros-cons-summary-services) Westminster. Q-Park describes Westminster as the closest safe and secure car park for Big Ben and says it is a short walk away (Q-Park). The London Eye car park is another major facility just across the bridge from Parliament and Big Ben, with 330 spaces available ([NCP](https://www.parksy.com/blog/national-car-parks-ncp-united-kingdom-parking-review)). ## London Eye Car Park and Other Nearby Choices The London Eye car park, operated by NCP, provides 330 spaces and is just across the bridge from Parliament and Big Ben (NCP). It is walkable from the London Eye and also offers a short taxi connection from the attraction (NCP). A free option is mentioned in parking information for the attraction, with the closest parking identified at 1 Abbey Gardens, London (SpotAngels). The same source states that Big Ben does not offer on-site parking (SpotAngels). Drivers looking for an unrestricted free space should distinguish this reference from the named commercial car parks before setting out. Show map of London ## Busy Days and Street Parking Around Millbank Tour demand can increase pressure around the site, particularly because Big Ben tours last up to 90 minutes and tickets for tours taking place from 1 August 2026 are £55 for adults and £35 for children aged 11 to 17 (Parliament). A timed tour can keep a vehicle away from its parking space for longer than a brief sightseeing stop. The attraction address is on Bridge Street in Millbank, within the City of Westminster. Parking directly on the surrounding streets is therefore a poor fit for visitors who need certainty, especially around Parliament and the bridge approaches. The listed parking guidance identifies off-street facilities rather than an on-site car park, while the council-controlled street network around the site is shaped by its central Westminster setting. ## Parksy Spaces Within 0.4 Miles of Big Ben Parksy lists a secure parking garage space on Victoria Street, a secure 24/7 garage space in the City of London, a covered space in Westminster, and a driveway space on Tufton Street. Each is 0.3 mi away. The Victoria Street and Tufton Street spaces are £12 a day, the City of London garage is £50 a day, and the Westminster space is £150 a month. Two further Parksy spaces are listed at 0.3 mi: convenient parking at Premier Inn Westminster St James Park is £28.62 an hour, while secure outdoor parking in Waterloo, London SE1 is 0.4 mi away and costs £17.88 an hour. The mix covers garages, covered parking, a driveway and outdoor parking, so the choice depends on whether shelter, round-the-clock access or a daily rate matters most. ## Stations and the Walk to Big Ben St. James's Park tube station is the nearest station, at 0.4 mi from Big and a 9 min walk. The route brings visitors into the Westminster area without taking a car onto Bridge Street, making it the most direct public transport option recorded for the site. Waterloo International railway station is about a 9 min walk away, while Waterloo tube station is about a 10 min walk away.
