Parking at Nottingham Carrington Street Railway Station
The station is served by Nottingham Station Car Park, operated by APCOA, next to the railway station. APCOA lists capacity of over 512 spaces, making it a substantial option for rail users arriving by car. The National Rail station page lists 957 parking spaces and 8 accessible parking spaces for Nottingham station, while EMR describes the adjacent car park as having over 950 spaces (APCOA; nationalrail.co.uk; eastmidlandsrailway.co.uk).
Access is from Carrington Street, the station’s address being 50 Carrington Street, Nottingham, NG1 7FE. APCOA says parking rates vary by length of stay, and EMR provides station car-park prices and opening times for its stations (APCOA; eastmidlandsrailway.co.uk). Drivers using the main station facility therefore have a dedicated rail-side car park rather than relying solely on city-centre street bays.
Commuter Parking for the Station Journey
Nottingham station’s adjacent car park is large enough to support regular rail travel, with over 950 spaces described by EMR and over 512 spaces listed by APCOA (eastmidlandsrailway.co.uk; APCOA). The different published capacities reflect the way the operators describe the facility, so commuters should use the current station information when planning a peak-time arrival.
EMR’s station car-parking service publishes prices and opening times, while APCOA states that the rate changes with the length of stay (eastmidlandsrailway.co.uk; APCOA). Those details are relevant to both daily commuters and longer rail trips, particularly where a driver is comparing a single-day stay with a recurring parking arrangement. National Rail records 8 accessible parking spaces at Nottingham station, which is useful information for passengers who need step-free or accessible parking provision (nationalrail.co.uk).
Street Parking Around Carrington Street
Those locations are separate from the station’s adjacent car park, so a driver arriving on Carrington Street needs to distinguish a marked motorcycle bay from a general parking place.
The council’s wording makes local signs the controlling instruction for restrictions and enforcement, especially around marked bays and station approaches. Street parking can therefore suit a short city-centre stop where the bay rules allow it, but the station car park remains the more direct choice for a train journey.
