29 of these 42 bays come from council published data and can be taken as fact. The rest are mapped from OpenStreetMap, which is contributed by volunteers rather than published by the council, so treat those as a guide and the plate at the bay as the authority.

Which council you are dealing with
Covent Garden straddles Camden and Westminster. That matters: the councils charge differently and enforce separately, so the side of the road you park on can decide what you pay and who tickets you. The bay you are standing at is the only thing that settles it, and its plate will say.

Car parks that take bikes
A car park always takes a motorcycle, which is the usual answer when the bays are full. Bear in mind the price shown is the car tariff: plenty of councils let motorcycles park free in a designated area and some car parks have a bike cage, so check before you pay.
