Purchasing your car park ticket
Pay in advance
To ‘make travel simpler’ we have introduced a variety of ways to purchase your car park ticket. You can make a purchase before you park in your chosen car park simply by contacting us in one of following ways:
Number Plate Recognition
We will introduce a number plate recognition payment system in 10 of our National Express East Anglia station car parks by August 2008.
Pay at the car park
If you prefer a little more flexibility and would like to purchase your ticket on the day you may use a pay and display machine located in any of our car parks. We have installed a fleet of car park machines that accept not only cash but also debit cards making your purchases simpler by eliminating the need to find change.

Park Mark
To demonstrate our commitment to you by making your experience of our station car parks simpler, we are working hard towards achieving 22 Park Mark awards across our car park network by July 2009. This will mean that our car parks will be recognised by the British Transport Police and the British Parking Association.
Safety and Security
We recognise that safety and security are important to you and therefore have introduced a lone traveller scheme allowing assistance from ‘car to train’ at 23 key station car parks across the network.
