A parkway railway station is a railway station that primarily serves a park and ride interchange rather than a town or city centre. The name parkway originally referred to being built next to the M32 motorway, which was built through parkland and thus known as the "Bristol Parkway".[1] The term has come to mean equally a park and ride bus and/or other motor car interchange with the UK light, regular or international railway network. One example refers to such an interchange with the tram network.
