Heuston Station Parking - Park by Text Q

    So, first time looking to park at Heuston and spotted the Park by Text Heuston car park.
    The website is very vague so am wondering if anyone can advise please -
    I can book online and pay by credit card - do I need to print off anything to display on my car?
    Is it a barriered system and if so, how do I enter?
    Also, it says that a space isn't guaranteed but realistically, if I have pre-booked and arrive at say 11am - there 'should' be a spot for me - right???

    I never park in this area hence all the questions and I am hitting for a meeting so don't want to get there and there to be an issue :o
    Thanks!

    If I'm correct, you have to register for the Park by Text system beforehand and they will issue you with a parking tag.

    You then send a text when you arrive.

    They know not to clamp your vehicle as the Park by Text system will list it.

    I can't comment, but on event days, etc. it might be very busy.

    you don't need a tag

    you have two options

    1. Register on parkbytext and top up an account. you can then use their carparks by sending a text each time

    2. a once off pay in advance online booking



    In relation to 2 the car parks I use are not barrier entry so I do not know the score there.
    There is a chance your car park will be full

    Thanks all.
    Just to update, I did the once-off payment and I got a spot no bother but I can see how you may not actually manage to get one at busier times.
