Parking at the Former Tilbury Riverside Station Building
The former station building is now an indoor car park for the London International Cruise Terminal, which occupies the former baggage hall (Wikipedia). This makes the building relevant to cruise-terminal visitors rather than a conventional railway station car park for daily rail commuters.
The station was officially closed in 1992 (PRS Architects). The building stands on Fort Road, in the Port of Tilbury, near Gravesend, at RM18 7NJ, so drivers heading there should distinguish the cruise-terminal facility from parking intended for a train journey.
Roadside Parking on Fort Road and Around the Port
Tilbury Riverside railway station is at Fort Road, Port of Tilbury, Tilbury, RM18 7NJ. The station’s former railway role and its current position beside the ferry and cruise-terminal facilities mean that roadside parking sits within an operational port setting rather than a typical residential station neighbourhood.
Drivers using Fort Road therefore need to treat access to the terminal and landing-stage area as the priority, rather than assuming that nearby kerbside space is suitable for a full commuting day.
Practical Choices for a Rail or Cruise-Terminal Journey
The former station building’s indoor parking is associated with the London International Cruise Terminal, not with an operating railway station (Wikipedia).
Tilbury Town is the operating railway alternative in the area, but National Rail lists no parking spaces there and four accessible parking spaces (National Rail). The c2c station information also covers off-peak parking tickets and station car-park questions, so rail travellers comparing options should separate Tilbury Town’s arrangements from the former Riverside site.
