From today (Wednesday 1 July), the Cardiff Central station car parks at Penarth Road and Riverside (Fish Jetty) will permanently close ahead of preparatory works for the transformation of Cardiff Central station. This includes pick up and drop off at both locations.<\/p>\n

This means car parking at Cardiff Central station will be provided by the new multi-storey car park at Central Quay (Crawshay Street).<\/p>\n

Delivered by Network Rail as the first phase and key enabler of the wider transformation, customers will benefit from improved facilities and accessibility through a modern multi-storey car park, offering 681 spaces, all of which (except the EV charging points) can be used as pick and drop off points, with a 20-minute free of charge period.<\/p>\n

The car park will be managed by APCOA and includes 28 electric vehicle charging points, secure cycle parking and space for a future 24-hour car rental scheme. It has been assessed by the British Parking Association and is set to receive Park Mark accreditation, recognising the high standards of safety and security in place.<\/p>\n

The development unlocks land for future regeneration delivered under the Metro Central programme, a multi-modal development comprising the \u00a3140 million Cardiff Central Enhancement Project, the Cardiff Crossrail scheme that will improve connectivity between Cardiff Central and Cardiff Bay and the potential for up to 300 new homes.<\/p>\n

Schemes of this scale require ongoing collaboration and careful planning, updates will be provided as work progresses.<\/p>\n

The transformative work in Metro Central is being delivered through the Canolog alliance, a partnership of public sector organisations working together to transform travel in the heart of Cardiff.<\/p>\n

The Canolog alliance will work collaboratively to deliver transformational change to transport in Cardiff and the wider region to improve connections between bus, rail, walking, wheeling and cycling and encourage sustainable travel.<\/p>\n

Car parking rates can be accessed at APCOA United Kingdom<\/a>.<\/p>\n
