## Parking at 850 Pulaski Street

The railway station is at 850 Pulaski Street in Columbia, 0.5 mi from Columbia center.

The City of Columbia publishes a separate parking ordinance with a first hour free, a second hour at $3, each additional hour at $1, a $15 maximum daily rate, and a $15 lost-ticket charge (parking.columbiasc.gov). Those rates belong to the city’s published parking ordinance rather than a confirmed station car park, so they should not be treated as station parking prices.

## Street Parking Near Columbia Station

City parking information lists meter rates of $1.50 per hour, or portion thereof, up to the applicable maximum time limit (experiencecolumbiasc.com). The published Columbia parking guide also says parking is free after 7:00PM and on Saturdays except for the Five Points District (experiencecolumbiasc.com).

The city’s new parking ordinance lists a first hour free, a second hour at $3, each additional hour at $1, and a $15 maximum daily rate (parking.columbiasc.gov). These rules and rates are city parking information, not a confirmed station-specific arrangement. Drivers using a curb space should match the posted sign or meter to the applicable city rule before leaving the vehicle.

## Parksy Spaces Within Reach of Columbia Station

The closest priced Parksy option is an outdoor lot at 2012 Lincoln Street, 1.1 mi from the station, costing $1 an hour.

For longer stays, Parksy lists a secure 24/7 gated space in West Columbia at $165 a month and a secure gated lot in West Columbia at $165 a month, both 6.7 mi away. A secure 24/7 parking lot in Columbia is also 6.7 mi away at $75 a week. Two outdoor or neighbor-storage options in West Columbia are 7.3 mi away and cost $25 a month each, making them better suited to extended vehicle storage than a short station visit.

## Planning a Commuter Parking Routine

The 2012 Lincoln Street outdoor lot gives commuters a priced hourly option 1.1 mi from the station at $1 an hour. Its distance makes it more practical for drivers willing to park away from the station and continue the final leg separately than for someone seeking a space immediately beside the platform.

Monthly and weekly choices are concentrated farther away. The two $165-a-month secure West Columbia spaces and the $75-a-week secure 24/7 Columbia lot are 6.7 mi from the station, while the two $25-a-month West Columbia spaces are 7.3 mi away. These longer-term options suit commuters with a regular vehicle-storage need, but their distances make them less convenient for a quick daily station stop.

## Getting Onward From Columbia Station

The station is located at 850 Pulaski Street, and Columbia center is 0.5 mi away. The nearby Parksy choices range from 1.1 mi away at 2012 Lincoln Street to 6.7 mi and 7.3 mi in Columbia and West Columbia, so drivers should allow for a separate connection between those spaces and the railway station.

A Link Transit park-and-ride listing refers to a different Columbia Station at Kittitas and Columbia Streets in Wenatchee, with 64 spaces and service on all routes except 18, 32 and DART (linktransit.com). Sound Transit also lists Columbia City Station, where parking includes 28 bike-locker spaces and 70 bike-rack spaces (soundtransit.org). Those transport facilities are not connections for the South Carolina station at 850 Pulaski Street.
