Parking

Daily-use and monthly permit parking fees at SEPTA-operated station surface lots and parking garages remain suspended until further notice. The fees noted below are currently not in effect.

Many Regional Rail and Norristown High-Speed Line Stations, as well as several others, offer parking facilities for commuters. Three locations have parking garages

Many stations are also located near municipal lots, which have different prices. Commuters should look for signage at the station to confirm parking fees and regulations for individual lots.

For complete information about parking rules and regulations, see Tariff No 168, Supplement No. 8 (PDF). Our Parking Violations page contains information on how to appeal parking violations.


Parking Availability

Parking lots may fill up early on weekday mornings and be full as early as 7:30 am. 

If parking is full at a station, check nearby stations. Local stations are more likely to have spaces available.


Non-SEPTA Parking

SEPTA stations often have nearby non-SEPTA parking available streetside or through other transit services, municipalities, or private owners. 

Consult a map for additional options not listed on this site. Free parking options are extremely limited.

Where to Park

Most SEPTA lots have daily-use spaces that are striped and numbered. Riders should pull into the parking spot and deposit the parking fee. Only cash is accepted. Customers will be able to pay the parking fee using Travel Wallet, Debit and Credit cards.

  • Fern Rock Transportation Center: $2.00 daily
  • Lansdale Parking Garage: $2.00 daily
  • 69th Street Terminal: $2.00 daily
  • Most other stations: $1.00 daily

Parking is also free on the following major holidays:

  • New Year's Day
  • Memorial Day
  • Independence Day
  • Labor Day
  • Thanksgiving

SEPTA offers monthly parking permits at many Regional Rail stations, securing commuters a reserved parking space at a station on a daily basis. Permits cost $32.00 per month at Fern Rock Transportation Center and $25.00 per month at other locations.

Call 215-580-6576 for an application. More information on how to obtain a parking permit.

Stations where permit parking is full may have a waiting list for permits.

Weekend and Holiday Parking

You must always have a permit to park in a permit lot, including on weekends and holidays.

On weeknights, SEPTA allows overnight parking at most Regional Rail stations, Norristown High Speed Line (NHSL) stations, and at the Fern Rock Transportation Center and 69th Street Transportation Center parking lots. 

Overnight parking is not permitted at some stations.

Daily-use parking rates apply at Fern Rock, 69th Street Terminal and most Regional Rail lots. Parking is free at the NHSL stations. For the parking garages, call for current rate information.

How to Pay for Overnight Parking

If you are parking in a lot with a coin slot box, place the payment in an envelope. The amount should be the number of weekdays parked times the weekday parking price (weekdays parked x daily price). Weekends and holidays are free. The envelope should contain the following information:

SEPTA discontinued the use of Slot Boxes for parking payments at all locations. We installed parking kiosks that will offer our customers the ability to set the number of days and have multiple payment options.

  • Parking space number
  • Car description: make and license plate number
  • The date you parked the vehicle and the date you will retrieve your vehicle (total number of days of your stay)

Place the envelope with your payment in the slot located on the back of the coin slot box.

Customers can provide this information by sending an email to parking@septa.org (Subject Overnight Parking) or call 215-580-3400
