Shrewsbury Park & Ride services

Park & Ride in Shrewsbury operates from three sites. All of these sites have closed circuit television in the car parks for your vehicle's security.

Park & Ride sites can be found at:

• Oxon Business Park
• Meole Brace Retail Park
• Harlescott, near Tesco

Cycle parking is available at the Meole Brace and Oxon Park & Ride sites.
