What is Park & Ride Terminal 2 Parking?

Park & Ride, previously known as Long Stay Parking, at Heathrow Terminal 2 is our budget-friendly parking option, offering a convenient and secure experience, that is ideal for any lengths of stays including short breaks and long-term trips.

The Terminal 2 Park & Ride car park served by free shuttle buses running to the doors of Terminal 2 every 15-minutes, with transfers taking as little as 15-minutes.

Stays under 30-minutes in duration are free of charge, meaning the Terminal 2 Park & Ride car park is also great for making drop-offs and pick-ups.

Where is the Terminal 2 Park & Ride car park?

Heathrow’s Terminal 2 Park & Ride car park makes use of the former Terminal 2 & 3 Long Stay Parking car park. Due to the recency of these changes, road signs around the airport will still refer to Long Stay Parking, though these should still be followed to reach the Park & Ride car park.

The Terminal 2 Park & Ride car park is located on Heathrow’s Eastern Perimeter Road, making access from both the M4 and M25 straightforward.

M4 users should exit at Junction 4, following signs for Heathrow Airport (Terminals 2 & 3). At the end of the M4 Spur keep left, passing under the bridge before taking the first exit on the left.

Take the third exit at the roundabout, then make a left turn at the following set of traffic lights. Once you have joined the Northern Perimeter Road West, follow signs for Long Stay, passing through three sets of lights. At the next roundabout, take the first exit, proceeding through the traffic lights, before coming up on the entrance for the Park & Ride car park on the left.

Those travelling on the M25 should leave at Junction 15, joining the London-bound M4, and then follow the above directions.
