Motorcycles can be parked in any of our council car parks.

If your motorcycle is parked in a space for cars, you will need to pay to park.
Coaches
Hereford
The main dropping off point for visitors and tourists is the coach bay on Broad Street, close to Hereford Cathedral.
The following car parks are suitable for coach parking in Hereford:
Merton Meadow car park is north of the river. There are no marked bays but this is a large car park where there is generally room for coaches. This car park is adjacent to the Hereford United football ground and you should use this car park if you are bringing football supporters.
St Martins car park is just south of the river and quite close to the dropping off point for tourists and visitors to the city. It has four bays marked out specifically for coaches and is adjacent to Hereford Leisure Pool.
Directions from St Martins car park to Broad Street
Turn right out of St Martins car park onto St Martins Street going over the old bridge, follow the road round to the left and ensure you are in the right hand lane at the traffic lights. Turn right onto the A49 (Victoria Street) up to the next set of traffic lights. Proceed to the roundabout where you need to go all the way around heading back on yourself on the A49 towards Ross for around 200 metres, ensure you are now in the left hand lane. Take the second turning on the left into West Street and proceed to the junction with Broad Street, turn right and the coach dropping off/picking up bay is close to the cathedral on the left hand side.
