The station itself is a historical railway location rather than a current passenger stop, so drivers should not treat the Rea Valley Route address as an advertised station car park. The historical setting includes the fence bordering Chamberlains car park, where the Kings Norton platform once stood, and a viaduct over the Lifford Canal branch (railaroundbirmingham.co.uk). The site history records three stations named Lifford before passenger services finally ceased in 1940 (warwickshirerailways.com). ## Parksy Spaces Near Lifford Railway Station The closest priced Parksy option is a car park on Iron Way in Stirchley, 0.4 mi away, costing £10 an hour. It suits drivers who want a dedicated car park rather than relying on kerbside space.

Show map of Selly Oak ## On-Street Parking Near Rea Valley Route The station address sits on Rea Valley Route in Cotteridge, near Selly Oak. The published local material identifies the former railway setting and nearby historical infrastructure, but does not provide a council schedule of waiting restrictions, residents’ permits or kerbside time limits for the address. Drivers using surrounding streets should separate public highway parking from the named Parksy spaces. A paid space on Iron Way, a church car park, a hospital space and the Broadmeadow Health Centre option are off-street listings, not evidence of permission to park on Rea Valley Route or adjacent roads. ## Rail and Bus Connections From Cotteridge Near Lifford Bournville railway station is the nearest listed station, 0.6 mi away and a 13-minute walk. Kings Norton railway station is about a 15-minute walk away, while Pineapple Road railway station is about an 18-minute walk away.
