Parking in Bristol

Crizzy · 22 Nov 2017 at 18:40

Does anyone regularly ride and park in central Bristol during the week, ideally near Temple Meads Station?

Are there any good spots that I can leave my bike for the day without charge? I've parked in Cabots before but it's a bit far from where I need to be, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers all

Just park it in Southmead then you won't have to worry about it any more.

There's parking right outside of the station if you're going there, or there's a multitude of car parks within walking distance which should have motorbike bays, towards queen's square. I used to live near temple meads, just depends where you actually want to get to.

Pfftttt they don't steal from their area, that's where they take them.

I think since one or two of them got locked up for other naughty things that the thefts have gone down a bit (and those two were from LW).

There is parking at Temple Meads isn't there, under the cover by the back entrance?

Looks like TallPaul has beaten me to it though.

Either park at Temple meads or i always park opposite the Marriot hotel in the Bike parking area, never had any trouble there mate

You could always leave it in Fowler’s car park. It’s close to the station and should be safe.

Wow some great advice here guys, thanks!

I happened to be at Temple Meads yesterday and when walking in (I got the bus, no bike yet) I went via the rear entrance and there is this bike parking area, I assume it's for all to use and not a pass/ticket required area?

Wow that's great. I know exactly where that is, but like you say I'm not 100% sure if a pass or ticket is needed.

Cheers again
