## Southampton Central Railway Station Car Park

The station car park is operated by [APCOA](https://www.parksy.com/blog/apcoa-parking-united-kingdom-review-pros-cons-summary-services) and has 198 parking spaces, including 8 accessible parking spaces (nationalrail.co.uk). Access is from Blechynden Terrace, the station address in The Polygon, Southampton, SO15 1AL. The facility supports both short-stay and long-stay parking (southwesternrailway.com).

APCOA lists a Monday to Friday daily rate of £8.70, a day off-peak rate of £4.40 from 12:00pm, and an hourly off-peak rate of £1.50. Saturday parking has a daily rate of £4.40 (apcoa.co.uk).

## Commuter Parking at Southampton Central

For a regular weekday journey, the station has daily and weekly ticket options listed by train operator information, including a £31.50 weekly ticket (tpexpress.co.uk). APCOA also publishes a Monday to Friday daily rate of £8.70, while its off-peak day rate begins at 12:00pm and is £4.40 (apcoa.co.uk).

The distinction between peak and off-peak pricing matters for commuters whose arrival is later in the day. The station provides short- and long-stay parking, so the car park can serve both occasional rail users and longer-term journeys (southwesternrailway.com). Accessible parking is available within the station car park, with 8 accessible spaces recorded by National Rail (nationalrail.co.uk).

## Street Parking Around Blechynden Terrace

These changes affect how drivers approach and leave the station area, particularly around the interchange and its crossing points.

The council source identifies disabled parking as part of the interchange improvements, while National Rail records drop-off and pick-up points at the station (nationalrail.co.uk). Drivers making a short station visit can therefore use the designated drop-off and pick-up provision rather than treating interchange space as ordinary long-stay parking.

## Parksy Parking Near Southampton Central

Parksy lists a 24/7 parking lot 156 yards from the station at £1.30 an hour. A space in The Polygon, SO15, is 0.2 miles away and costs £10 an hour, making it a close option for drivers prioritising proximity.

A central Southampton space is 0.3 miles away and costs £4.50 a day, which suits drivers planning a longer stay rather than paying by the hour.

## Rail and Bus Connections From Southampton Central

Millbrook railway station is the nearest alternative station, 0.9 miles away and a 19-minute walk from Southampton Central railway station.

The Central Station Interchange is being improved with additional bus stop provision and safer pedestrian crossings (transport.southampton.gov.uk). The interchange therefore links rail travel with local bus services, while the station itself has drop-off and pick-up points for passengers arriving by car (nationalrail.co.uk).
