Street Parking Around Station Approach Road

The operating alternatives in the area are Coulsdon South and Coulsdon Town, where council or operator controls apply to marked parking areas rather than creating a station facility at the former Coulsdon North site.
For drivers leaving a vehicle on surrounding streets, the relevant restriction is the signed local control in force at the exact parking place.
