## Bedford Railway Station Car Park on Ashburnham Road

The station car park is operated by [APCOA](https://www.parksy.com/blog/apcoa-parking-united-kingdom-review-pros-cons-summary-services), with 633 parking spaces and 17 accessible parking spaces listed by National Rail (nationalrail.co.uk). The station parking tariff is £12.90 for a Monday to Friday daily stay, £4.10 for an evening stay from 5pm on Monday to Friday, and £4.10 for a Saturday or Sunday daily stay (apcoa.co.uk).

APCOA also lists a weekly ticket at £55.50 (apcoa.co.uk). Its Monday to Friday tariff is £9.90 for all day from 6am to 11.59pm, or £4.30 from 10am to 11.59pm (bedford.gov.uk).

## Parksy Parking Spaces Within 0.6 Miles of the Station

Parksy lists a driveway space at The Child Development Centre, 0.3 miles away, at £4.20 an hour. This suits a short appointment, an errand near the station or a few hours between trains. A space in Heron Quay is 0.4 miles away and costs £12 a day, making it a straightforward option for a full working day.

Eye World Limited has parking 0.4 miles away at £0.70 an hour, which suits drivers who need a low hourly rate. Bedford Park Adelaide Square offers secure 24/7 parking 0.4 miles away for £16.80 a day. A monthly space 0.5 miles away costs £74 a month, while a Bedford parking lot with 24/7 access and EV charging is 0.6 miles away at £4.40 a day.

## Street Parking Controls Around Bedford Station

The council lists the car park as open 24 hours, so it can serve drivers arriving before the first train or returning late at night (bedford.gov.uk).

The council tariff separates all-day parking from a later-starting charge: Monday to Friday all-day parking runs from 6am to 11.59pm, while the shorter tariff runs from 10am to 11.59pm (bedford.gov.uk). Drivers using the council car park therefore need to match their intended stay with the displayed tariff and the maximum-stay rule.

## Commuter Parking and Weekly Tickets at the Station

The station car park has a substantial published capacity of 633 spaces, including 17 accessible spaces (nationalrail.co.uk). APCOA lists a weekly ticket at £55.50, which is aimed at commuters making repeated weekday journeys rather than drivers needing a single evening stay (apcoa.co.uk).

For occasional commuters, APCOA lists a £12.90 Monday to Friday daily rate and a £4.10 evening rate from 5pm on Monday to Friday (apcoa.co.uk). Thameslink provides information about parking at its stations, including ways to book and pay for a parking space (thameslinkrailway.co.uk).

## Bedford St Johns and Onward Links From the Station

Bedford St Johns railway station is the nearest alternative station, 0.7 miles away and a 14-minute walk from the station. This gives drivers with a Parksy space farther from the platforms another rail option when their route starts or finishes at St Johns.

The station has a designated drop-off and pick-up point, and National Rail lists cycling facilities alongside station parking information (nationalrail.co.uk). Drivers choosing the Parksy space 0.6 miles away with 24/7 access and EV charging can use that facility before continuing to the railway station. The 0.3-mile Parksy space is the closest listed option, while the 0.4-mile spaces provide several alternatives at the same walking range.
