The station is at 2450 East 24th Avenue in Renfrew-Collingwood, near Victoria Park. A SkyTrain map describes Nanaimo station as having a park-and-ride facility, which gives drivers a station-side option for continuing by rail. The map does not publish the facility’s operator, capacity, entry arrangement, rates or opening hours (skytrainmap.com).
For a driver approaching from the surrounding streets, the address places the rail access on East 24th Avenue. The station’s park-and-ride description makes it relevant for commuters who want to leave a vehicle before boarding, while the nearby monthly spaces provide a separate option for drivers seeking a reserved arrangement close to the entrance.

TransLink identifies three Park and Ride lots where parking can be purchased on site at parking meters with a credit card: Carvolth Exchange, Scott Road and South Surrey (translink.ca). Those facilities provide alternatives for drivers planning a longer drive before transferring to transit. Nanaimo station’s park-and-ride facility is identified by SkyTrain Map, but no permit, daily ticket, seasonal ticket or peak-availability detail is published there (skytrainmap.com).
Street Parking in Renfrew-Collingwood Near the Station
The Nanaimo Street listing belongs to a different site and is not the station’s nearby parking. It advertises a daily flat rate of $3 from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM and a $3 evening flat rate from 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM, but the listing is for 4180 Nanaimo Street (vancouverparking.preciseparklink.com).
The page lists passes at $10 per day per space and permits at $50 for a car (nanaimo.ca). Those figures should not be treated as on-street rules for East 24th Avenue or the surrounding Renfrew-Collingwood streets.
29th Avenue Station and Wider Transit Connections
29th Avenue station is the nearest rail connection, 860 m from the station, or an 11-minute walk.
