Is there motorcycle parking at Soho?

Yes. We hold 95 motorcycle bays within 600 metres of Soho, plus 5 car parks a bike can use. The nearest is 41 metres away, which is a few minutes on foot.

How much is motorcycle parking at Soho?

The cheapest all day charge on a bay in range is £1 and the dearest is £1.30. You pay by phone using the location number on the plate beside the bay, not with anything you leave on the bike.

Which council covers Soho?

More than one. Soho straddles Camden, Westminster, and they charge differently and enforce separately. Which side of the road you park on can decide what you pay, so the plate at the bay is what counts.

Can I leave a motorbike at Soho overnight?

Depends on the bay. Many motorcycle bays have no maximum stay, but some carry one and resident bays are permit holders only at all times. SoloBay shows the restriction for each bay we hold it for, and the plate beside the bay is the authority.

Motorcycle parking at Soho

95 motorcycle bays within 600 metres of Soho. Soho is dense, one-way and almost entirely double yellow, and the pedestrianised blocks around Carnaby and Broadwick cut straight through any route you plan. The bays here are small and tucked into side streets rather than on the main drags.

Which council you are dealing with

Soho 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.
