Ring Go - The sign at Bristol Street Swindon give he phone number 020 3046 0060 which is not what it was when they did the station. Has it changed?
Where Ring Go charge extra for the service the phone App is apparently cheaper. 


SWINDON

Main Car Park is not long after 07:00 mon to fri http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=16423.msg186872#msg186872


West Car Park is full not long after 07:30 mon to fri http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=16423.msg186872#msg186872

There is also the Bristol Street Car Park (by the Old Swindon B Panel Box) it uses Ring Go - of the site reference.  You can then walk through the industrial units to the West Car Park. (You can also drive through if you find you cannot get a space in the West Car Park.
