Motorcycle parking at The O2

4 motorcycle bays within 900 metres of The O2, 1 of them free. The O2 is on the Greenwich peninsula with the Blackwall Tunnel approach on one side and the river on three, so there is one way in and it is slow on an event night. The venue car parks dominate; on-street bays are thin on the ground.

1 of these is customer parking, private land or permit holders only. 1 sits inside a car park that is marked that way. Being on the map is not the same as being somewhere you may leave a bike, and neither is being free: on private land the risk is a parking charge from the landowner, which cannot be appealed to an independent tribunal the way a council ticket can.

These bays are mapped from OpenStreetMap rather than published by the council, so treat the prices as a guide and read the plate at the bay. Where we hold council data, as in Westminster and Camden, we say so.

What the paid bays in range actually say: Check signage.

Which council you are dealing with

The O2 straddles Greenwich and Tower Hamlets. 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.
