Parking at Bristol St Philip’s Railway Station
Bristol St Philip’s railway station is a former Midland Railway terminus at 26 Midland Road, St Philip’s, near St Jude. The station is now associated with a covered car park, while toilets and disabled parking facilities are nearby (bristolbathrailwaypath.org.uk).
The station site itself is not presented with a published operator, capacity, tariff or opening schedule in the local station information. For a driver arriving by car, Midland Road is the relevant approach, and the covered former station area is the feature identified in the railway-path description rather than a standard rail-station car park tariff.
Commuter Parking for the St Philip’s Station Area
For a longer railway journey, the published APCOA option is at Bristol Temple Meads rather than at the former St Philip’s terminus. APCOA lists an inside tariff of £22 for up to 24 hours, with a weekend daily rate and bank holiday rate of £13.50; motorcycles are free in the motorcycle area (apcoa.co.uk).
The Temple Meads listing also shows an outside tariff for stays of up to 3 hours (apcoa.co.uk). Those rail-station tariffs suit commuters who want a formal station car park, but they are separate from the nearby Parksy spaces around St Philip’s and BS2.
On-Street Parking Around Midland Road and St Philip’s
The station address is 26 Midland Road, St Philip’s, BS2 0PF, placing the approach in an urban part of Bristol near St Jude. The local station information identifies disabled parking facilities nearby (bristolbathrailwaypath.org.uk).
The published local sources identify the nearby disabled provision and the covered former station area, but do not provide a separate list of resident-zone hours, waiting restrictions, or on-street time limits for Midland Road. Drivers using streets around the station therefore need to use the restriction information displayed on the relevant street signs and markings, rather than treating the former station site as unrestricted roadside parking.
