## Riverside–Downtown Station Car Park on Vine Street

The station’s Metrolink car park provides 1,240 spaces, including 25 handicapped spaces, and parking is free for all Metrolink passengers (metrolinktrains.com). The station is on Vine Street, giving drivers a direct approach from Riverside’s downtown area.

Metrolink’s station information gives conflicting overnight guidance: one line says overnight parking is allowed, while another says no overnight parking is permitted in the lot (metrolinktrains.com). Downtown’s Park Riverside facilities charge $1.25 for each thirty minutes, with a $20 daily maximum and a $160 monthly rate (parkatriverside.com).

## Commuter Parking Choices for the Station

The free Metrolink passenger parking makes the station lot the first choice for a regular rail commute, but the listed capacity of 1,240 spaces means availability can matter during busy departure periods (metrolinktrains.com). The station information also lists 25 handicapped spaces, useful for drivers who need an accessible bay (metrolinktrains.com).

Downtown drivers who prefer a paid facility can use Park Riverside’s daily maximum of $20 or its $160 monthly rate (parkatriverside.com). The weekday operating window is 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM (parkatriverside.com). The Metrolink listing also says the station lot has an overnight restriction, so commuters leaving a vehicle beyond the normal trip should treat overnight parking as a specific issue rather than assuming a day ticket covers it (metrolinktrains.com).

## Parksy Spaces Near Riverside–Downtown Station

Parksy lists a secure garage at Mission Square, 0.3 mi from the station, at $2 an hour. A secure covered parking space and a secure covered lot are also 0.3 mi away, each priced at $150 a week. The covered options suit commuters seeking shelter for a multi-day stay, while the garage works for a shorter visit.

At 0.4 mi, an outdoor lot is listed at $135 a month. Two hourly choices at the same distance are an Orange Square garage at $1 an hour and an outdoor lot space at $1.50 an hour. The monthly space is aimed at longer-term parking, while the hourly garage and lot suit occasional rail trips or downtown errands.

## Street Parking Around Vine Street

Metrolink’s official listing identifies a station parking lot and gives separate overnight guidance, making the lot’s posted conditions more relevant than informal curbside assumptions (metrolinktrains.com).

Downtown paid parking operated by Park Riverside is listed at $1.25 for each thirty minutes, with a $20 daily maximum and a $160 monthly rate (parkatriverside.com). Those charges apply to Park Riverside facilities, not automatically to every street space near the station. A driver using a curb space should follow the restriction shown for that specific space rather than transfer the downtown lot tariff to the street.
