Additional Information
Some additional information about parking in stoke on trent station, to cater to all your parking needs
On-street parking
On-street parking spaces are few within the six towns and that includes Hanley. The streets near the station are old and narrow; while the houses are generally kept in good condition, front doors open straight onto the street with no front gardens and nowhere for residents to park except on the street. This area is therefore largely subject to Property Owner Permits and not available to passengers who have driven to the station intending to catch a train. A good general rule would be: If you can’t walk to the station from your home, you won’t be able to park on the street while you’re away.
Off-street parking
There are three car parks at Stoke-on-Trent Station. They are operated by Virgin Trains and charge £12 per day, Monday to Friday, and £6 on Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays:
The largest council-owned car parks in Hanley are:
Public transport
Apart from the station’s rail services, Hanley bus station has National Express services throughout the country. Local bus services do a good job of linking up all six Potteries towns.
Disabled parking
Blue Badge holders park free in on-street parking spaces and council-owned car parks, but in many cases, receive no extension to the fixed maximum stay.
Parking restrictions & event days
The age of the housing stock and the narrowness of the streets mean that a high percentage of roads in Hanley have double yellow lines. Also, a large number of parking spaces are subject to Property Owner Permits, Business Permits, Trade Exemption Permits and Commuter Permits, and are therefore not available to the general public.
Overnight, weekends & bank holidays
Since early 2019, Stoke-on-Trent Council has been introducing charges for parking on bank holidays, in its car parks and on-street parking bays.
Drop-off and pick-up
The station itself has good and clearly marked facilities for dropping and collecting passengers. Away from the station, drivers can stop to set down and pick up passengers on double yellow lines only if the passenger has a Blue Badge.
