Parking at the Station on Mitchell Freeway
The station car park is operated through Transperth, with 189 parking bays listed at Glendalough Station (transperth.wa.gov.au). The station address is Mitchell Freeway, Osborne Park WA 6016, near Glendalough, so access is arranged from the freeway-side station area rather than a suburban shopping street.
Transperth charges $2 on weekdays for parking at a train station, with the fee applying per 24 hour period. Parking is free on weekends and public holidays (transperth.wa.gov.au). The operator also lists short-term parking bays, which can help when collecting or dropping off a passenger rather than leaving a car for a full commute.

A secure lock-up garage in Glendalough is 710 m away at $130 a week, making it suited to a regular commuter who wants a reserved covered space rather than relying on station-bay availability.

Commuter Parking and Weekday Demand
The 189-bay station car park gives weekday commuters a defined pool of spaces, but a local report says it is always full by 9 am when commuters are seeking parking at the station (homely.com.au). Drivers with early starts have a better chance of finding a station bay before that reported peak, while later arrivals can use a reserved Parksy space instead.
The station page also asks passengers needing assistance to call 1800 800 022, preferably one hour ahead of travel (transperth.wa.gov.au).
Street Parking Near Osborne Park and Glendalough
The station is on Mitchell Freeway in Osborne Park WA 6016, near Glendalough, and the council-related report says Stirling council has installed pay machines for parking near the station (homely.com.au).
Drivers using a street or council-controlled bay need to follow the sign or machine applying to the exact space. The local report links the pay machines with the station parking area and reports full commuter parking by 9 am (homely.com.au), so an unrestricted assumption about free all-day kerb parking is unsafe around the station.
Rail and Bus Connections From the Station Area
Its position on Mitchell Freeway makes it a practical rail access point for Osborne Park and nearby Glendalough, while the station car park provides the direct drive-and-ride option for passengers arriving by car.
For drivers who cannot secure a station bay, the nearby Parksy spaces offer alternatives at distances from 300 m to 1.4 km. The closest is a few minutes' walk in practical terms, while the 1.4 km option is better suited to a commuter prepared to walk farther in exchange for a monthly private space.
