## Parking at Soho and Winson Green Railway Station

Soho and Winson Green railway station is a disused former Great Western Railway station in Gib Heath, near Smethwick. The former station stood east of Benson Road and was previously associated with the Soho Road Company (disused-stations.org.uk).

The station closed to passengers after the former Soho & Winson Green station ceased operation (disused-stations.org.uk). Its railway history is described as part of the Great Western Railway route linking London Paddington with Birkenhead via Birmingham Snow Hill (wikipedia.org).

## Roadside Parking Around Benson Road and Gib Heath

The station site is at Unit 7 Benson Road, Gib Heath, Birmingham, B18 5TS. The former station location is recorded as east of Benson Road (disused-stations.org.uk), so Benson Road is the key approach when looking for the historic site.

Journey planning information identifies the nearby Handsworth, Birmingham, Soho Road stop as a local interchange for travel towards Winson Green, with bus 11A shown for that journey (journeyplanner.networkwestmidlands.com). Drivers using roadside space around the former station can connect with local public transport from the Soho Road area.

## Parksy Parking Spaces Near the Former Station Site

The closest listed option is a parking space in B18, 116 yards away, priced at £0.95 an hour. It suits a short visit when proximity matters more than an all-day rate. A hotel car park at the Best Western Westley Hotel is 0.2 miles away and costs £4.80 a day, making it a practical choice for a full working day.

Further options include a Soho Road space 0.4 miles away at £4 an hour, plus a B18 7DL parking space 0.6 miles away at £5.50 a day. Two Handsworth options are also 0.6 miles away: secure 24/7 parking on Camp Lane costs £6.25 an hour, while parking near The Hawthorns Stadium costs £6.25 an hour.

## Commuting From the Gib Heath Site

The £4.80-a-day hotel car park and the £5.50-a-day B18 7DL space are the clearest fits for a standard weekday commute, while the £0.95-an-hour B18 space keeps a shorter stop inexpensive. Hourly options on Soho Road and Camp Lane are better suited to brief stays or drivers who need a specific nearby location.

The former station is not a current rail boarding point, so a commuter using a Parksy space needs to plan the onward journey from another station or a local bus stop. The Soho Road journey planner shows bus 11A taking 5 minutes between Handsworth, Birmingham, Soho Road and Winson Green (journeyplanner.networkwestmidlands.com).
