Croxton Station Car Park and the Croxton Venue Car Park
Croxton Station itself has parking available, according to Metro Trains Melbourne, but the operator does not publish a capacity, tariff, opening hours or entry street on its station page (metrotrains.com.au). The station is at 13 Spencer Street, Northcote VIC 3070, near Thornbury, so Spencer Street is the practical address to use when approaching the platforms.
A separate car park opposite The Croxton is a substantial nearby alternative rather than a station facility. The Croxton describes that car park as having 300 spaces and offering free parking for punters (thecroxton.com.au). The venue is around the corner from the station, while High Street trams run out the front (croxtonparkhotel.com.au). This arrangement can suit a visitor attending the venue, but a rail commuter should distinguish the venue car park from station parking before leaving a vehicle there.
Street Parking Around Croxton Station in Northcote
Metro Trains Melbourne lists parking as available at Croxton Station, while separately recording no accessible parking and no pick-up or drop-off facility (metrotrains.com.au). Those station details make the distinction between a parking space and a formal passenger set-down area important for drivers arriving with someone else.
The station address remains 13 Spencer Street, Northcote VIC 3070. The Croxton venue car park across the road is owned by The Croxton and is described as free for punters, so its use is tied to venue parking rather than a general on-street rule (thecroxton.com.au).
Commuter Planning for Croxton Train Parking
Metro Trains Melbourne’s station page identifies parking as available, but it does not provide a station capacity, daily rate, permit scheme, pre-booking facility or season-ticket product (metrotrains.com.au). The absence of those published commuter products means drivers should not plan around a guaranteed reserved bay or a station subscription.
The venue car park opposite The Croxton is described as a 300-capacity facility with free parking for punters (thecroxton.com.au). That makes it relevant to a rail trip only when the driver is also using the venue, rather than as a published all-day station parking product. Transport Victoria provides departure information for the station, including access to journey planning, tickets and payments (transport.vic.gov.au).
