It provides 207 spaces, according to Southeastern Railway, while National Rail also lists 207 parking spaces (southeasternrailway.co.uk; nationalrail.co.uk). Riviera Drive is the useful approach for drivers arriving directly at the station, with the address listed as Riviera Drive, Southchurch, Southend-on-Sea, SS1 2QT. National Rail lists a drop-off and pick-up point at the station, but no accessible parking spaces (nationalrail.co.uk). Southeastern Railway gives the station car park operator and capacity, and publishes 01702 215 000 as the car parking contact number (southeasternrailway.co.uk). The station is in Southchurch, near Kursaal, so the Riviera Drive entrance is convenient for local rail journeys and short station drop-offs. ## Parksy Parking Spaces Near the Station and Kursaal Parksy lists a monthly space near Southend Pier, 52 yd away, priced at £63 a month. Its close position suits a regular commuter who wants a longer-term arrangement near the station rather than a new daily search. A space at Southchurch Avenue Car Park is 0.4 mi away and costs £4.80 a day, making it a straightforward daily option for drivers who prefer an off-street car park. Further choices include Southend-on-Sea Pier parking on Stanley Road, 0.5 mi away at £7.50 an hour, and a 24/7 parking lot in Southend-on-Sea, also 0.5 mi away, at £9.60 a day. Pleasant Road parking in SS1 is 0.5 mi away at £4.50 an hour, while Spire Wellesley Hospital parking is 0.6 mi away at £4.60 an hour. The hourly spaces suit shorter stays, while the daily and monthly listings are better aligned with commuting. Show map of Kursaal ## On-Street Parking Around Southchurch and Riviera Drive Southend-on-Sea Borough Council manages public off-street car parks and on-street parking across the city for cars, motorcycles and vans not exceeding 2.3 metres (southend.gov.uk). The council’s parking information covers the citywide charging framework, so drivers using streets around Riviera Drive need to follow the signs and markings applying at the specific bay. Network Rail says 30 parking bays on Riviera Drive adjacent to Platform 2 will be suspended during station works, with on-street parking on Riviera also affected (networkrail.co.uk). The council is the authority responsible for local parking provision, while station access remains centred on Riviera Drive. ## Commuter Parking Choices at the Station The station car park has 207 spaces, giving commuters a substantial station-based option, but the Riviera Drive works affecting 30 bays can reduce availability beside Platform 2 (southeasternrailway.co.uk; networkrail.co.uk). Parksy’s £63-a-month space 52 yd away is the closest priced longer-term listing, while the £4.80-a-day Southchurch Avenue Car Park listing offers a daily alternative. Drivers needing only a short stay can choose the £4.50-an-hour Pleasant Road space, the £7.50-an-hour Stanley Road space or the £4.60-an-hour Spire Wellesley Hospital space. C2C states that it does not run a car park at the station (c2c-online.co.uk), while Southeastern identifies the station car park operator as Southend-on-Sea Borough Council (southeasternrailway.co.uk). ## Rail and Road Connections From Southend East Prittlewell railway station is the nearest station listed for the area, at 1.2 mi or a 25-minute walk. Southend Central Station is another parking-related alternative, with an [NCP](https://www.parksy.com/blog/national-car-parks-ncp-united-kingdom-parking-review) car park open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. NCP lists pay-on-the-day prices of £2.10 for one hour, £4.10 for one to two hours, £6.20 for two to three hours and £9 for three to 24 hours (ncp.co.uk). Southend Central is served by c2c, while Southend East is also covered by c2c services, so the central-station option can suit drivers who are willing to begin their journey from a different station.
