Derby Railway Station Car Park on Railway Terrace
The station’s main parking is operated through APCOA, with Derby Station zones listed on Railway Terrace and Roundhouse Road (APCOA). National Rail lists 498 parking spaces, including 24 accessible parking spaces, at the station (nationalrail.co.uk). The station therefore offers a substantial supply for rail users, with accessible provision identified separately for drivers who need it.
EMR lists an off-peak daily rate of £3.30 from 10:00 to 02:30 Monday to Friday, with £2.20 applying at weekends and on bank holidays (eastmidlandsrailway.co.uk). The same EMR tariff lists weekly parking at £8.40, monthly parking at £28 and quarterly parking at £75.60 (eastmidlandsrailway.co.uk). APCOA also shows a one-day parking code covering 00:00 to 02:30, with a displayed charge of £16.50 in one Derby Station zone (apcoaconnect.com).
Parksy Parking Spaces Within 246 Yards of the Station
Parksy lists several nearby hotel and driveway-style parking choices for drivers who want a short walk rather than the station’s own zones. A space at Best Western Midland Road is 127 yards away and costs £5 an hour, while Derby Midland Hotel in DE1 is also 127 yards away at £9.75 an hour. Derby Station Hotel in DE1 is 136 yards away and costs £7.50 an hour.
Hallmark Inn Derby offers a space 185 yards away at £1.20 an hour, making it the lowest-priced listed option for a longer stop where an hourly tariff suits the visit. Hudson Way Car Park is 219 yards away, has 24/7 access and costs £3 an hour. Aston Court hotel parking in DE1 is 246 yards away at £10 an hour, which may suit drivers prioritising a hotel-based location close to the platforms.
Roadside Parking and Access Rules by Derby Station
The station’s parking areas operate through numbered APCOA zones rather than a single undifferentiated car park. APCOA identifies Derby Station Zone 3 at Roundhouse Road, DE24 8JE, and records 163 spaces for that zone (apcoa.co.uk). The operator lists the car park as open 24/7 from Monday through Sunday, giving drivers an around-the-clock option within the station estate (apcoa.co.uk).
Short visits are covered by a 30-minute grace period in the station’s barrier-less parking zones, according to dataDerby (dataderby.co.uk). Each vehicle entry starts a parking session, with the grace period applying to visits of up to 30 minutes (dataderby.co.uk). Drivers using the station approach should distinguish the APCOA areas from ordinary roadside spaces, because the station’s zone and session rules apply inside the managed parking areas.
Commuter Parking for Early Trains and Regular Journeys
The station’s published tariff structure gives regular commuters several duration choices. EMR lists daily off-peak parking at £3.30 on Monday to Friday between 10:00 and 02:30, while weekend and bank-holiday parking is listed at £2.20 (eastmidlandsrailway.co.uk). Those time bands are most relevant to commuters whose cars remain parked beyond the morning peak, rather than to every early departure.
Weekly parking is listed at £8.40, monthly parking at £28 and quarterly parking at £75.60 by EMR (eastmidlandsrailway.co.uk). APCOA’s station information also shows a one-day code running from 00:00 to 02:30, with £16.50 displayed for one Derby Station zone (apcoaconnect.com). The different published tariff entries make the parking duration and zone important when choosing between a regular ticket and a single-day stay.

Derby Nottingham Road railway station is the nearest alternative station, at 0.8 miles or a 16-minute walk from the station.
