Translink says train station carparks are managed by Queensland Rail (translink.com.au). [Wilson Parking](https://www.parksy.com/blog/wilson-parking-review-pros-cons-summary-services) lists Townsville facilities at 86 Ogden Street and 45 Flinders Street, with advertised rates from $3 and from $2 respectively (wilsonparking.com.au). These are separate Townsville parking facilities rather than a stated station car park, so a driver heading to rail should distinguish the station location from the nearby commercial options before leaving the vehicle. ## Commuter Parking Near the Rail Platforms The clearest published payment option for a commuter using council-managed parking is the Townsville [Parking App](https://www.parksy.com/blog/how-parking-apps-are-changing-way-australians-park). The app lists two hours at $4, four hours at $8, and a maximum of $10 (townsville.qld.gov.au). The app is useful for council parking around the rail precinct, but it should not be treated as proof that the same tariff applies inside a Queensland Rail facility. Show map of Townsville City ## Street Parking on Flinders Street and Nearby Blocks For a short station visit, the two-hour allowance is the key restriction to plan around rather than assuming a street space can cover a full working day. The council also identifies some free 15-minute parking locations (townsville.qld.gov.au). A driver leaving a car while travelling by train should separate those short-stop spaces from the free two-hour areas, because the shorter limit is designed for a brief visit. ## Parksy Parking Spaces Within Walking Distance For a paid alternative, Parksy lists a Central Village car park in Townsville, 540 m away, at $9 a day. A secure private parking space in West End is 590 m away and costs $63 a week, which suits a regular commuter who prefers a weekly booking over daily payment. A lot parking space in Railway Estate is 800 m away and costs $30 a day. Two further lot spaces in Townsville are each 1.1 km away at $8 a day, while a secure private space in Townsville is 1.2 km away at $80 a month. The closer daily options favour occasional rail users, and the weekly or monthly spaces are better aligned with repeated weekday travel.
