ubonjoe Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Since nobody else has posted yet I will try to help. Not sure it is still available but there is secured parking at the bus station where the shuttle buses for the bridge operate from. It is located on the right when coming in on HWY 2 from Udon at the first large intersection before the bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 I don't have recent experiences (2011) but obviously the big parking (secured, fee) is unchanged: https://www.google.de/maps/@17.8650183,102.7225163,3a,75y,262.13h,86.55t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sPVafN__cpDCOPrxkxJ6QnA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 It can be reached from the left frontage road coming from Udon just before the checkpoint (walking distance, in the back you see the yellow roof of the checkpoint). From the street view it looks like another one has been opened just before the "old" one: https://www.google.de/maps/@17.8645884,102.7230763,3a,75y,225.18h,90.52t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1seJEOLM-RUKmTxTtuyn8cpw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 I would tell them in advance that you want to leave it for a week. Best park somewhere in the back with less risk of being hit by other cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thanyaburi Mac Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I parked there last week, five days-four nights, baht 400 total. Have been parking there for 20 years, never a problem. And, yes, park in back. Mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the station for the buses that crosses the bridge. You pay the same 20 baht fee. It has been a while since I did but if I recall correctly I got back on the same bus after clearing immigration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
