When to Visit

Park and ride sites follow a clear commuter pattern — demand surges on weekday mornings as people drive in and catch the bus, then stays high until the evening return. Arriving before 8am gives you the best chance of a space. Weekends are very quiet, as most park and rides see minimal non-commuter use. The substantial capacity means this car park can handle high demand, making it a reliable option even at busier times.
