Abbey Car Park on Dominic Street
The centre’s own facility is Abbey Car Park, operated through APCOA (apcoa.ie). Its published tariff is €1.30 for 1 hour, €2.60 for 2 hours, €3.90 for 3 hours and €5.20 for 4 hours (connectcashlessparking.com). The Drogheda Town Centre guide also lists €5.10 for up to 3 hours and €2.50 per hour thereafter (droghedatowncentre.ie), so the displayed tariff is worth checking at the entrance.
APCOA lists Saturday parking from 8am to 5pm at €1.30 per hour, with a 4-hour maximum stay (apcoa.ie). The operator page does not publish a capacity figure in the available listing.
Parksy Spaces Within a Short Walk of ASC
The closest Parksy option is a 24/7 space on Dominic Street, a few steps away at 50 m, priced at €1.30 an hour. Two Fr Connolly Way spaces are 90 m away and each costs €1.30 an hour; both are listed as 24/7. These spaces are useful when the centre’s own bays are busy or when you need access outside the published Saturday period.
A 24/7 space on West Street is 120 m away at €1.30 an hour. Two further 24/7 spaces at Fair St. Georges St. are 160 m away, also priced at €1.30 an hour. The Parksy options match the centre’s published 1-hour rate, while their 24/7 availability makes them the more practical choice for early, late or longer visits.
Shopping Peaks and the Four-Hour Rule at Abbey
Saturday is a particularly relevant period for drivers because APCOA publishes Abbey Car Park’s Saturday operating window as 8am to 5pm (apcoa.ie). The operator also gives the car park a 4-hour maximum stay (apcoa.ie), making the facility better suited to a shopping visit than to all-day town parking.
The Drogheda Town Centre guide lists local parking charges of €1.30 up to 1 hour, €2.60 up to 2 hours, €5.10 up to 3 hours and €2.50 per hour thereafter (droghedatowncentre.ie). Those figures indicate that short stays and longer stays are charged differently, while APCOA’s published 4-hour maximum sets a clear boundary for the Abbey facility. Parking enforcement details are presented through the operator’s location information rather than as a separate centre rule.
Bolton Street Car Park in Drogheda

It provides an alternative when the Dominic Street facility is inconvenient for the direction of travel.
The Bolton Street listing presents the same published four-step tariff for weekday and Saturday parking (apcoaconnect.ie). Drivers heading to the centre should compare the extra walk with the convenience of the closer Dominic Street spaces, particularly during the Saturday period published for Abbey Car Park.
