Opened in June 2011, the 56-space Park & Ride is located near Pencoed Railway Station, viewed from Min-y-Nant. There were several reasons for the creation of the facility, such as reducing inconsiderate parking near the station, reducing the need for drivers to use the level crossing (between the eastbound platform and the westbound platform at the station), and to encourage the use of the railway.
