Street Parking Rules Near the Station

Waterloo sits in a dense central London area where kerb space is heavily managed, and the practical choice for a longer stay is a marked car park or a booked private space rather than relying on an unmarked gap. A vehicle left in a restricted bay can be subject to enforcement, while restrictions shown on local signs govern loading, waiting and parking at the point of use. The station facilities information also records 0 accessible parking spaces, so passengers needing step-free access should not assume that a station bay provides an accessible alternative (networkrail.co.uk).
