About this Location

Facility Overview

The Metropark Parking Facility, located at 100 Middlesex Turnpike in the Iselin section of Woodbridge Township, New Jersey, is one of the premier transit-oriented parking hubs in the Tri-State area. Serving the bustling Metropark Train Station along Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor and NJ Transit’s Northeast Corridor Line, the facility features massive multi-level parking garages flanked by surface parking options. The multi-deck garages provide covered, weather-protected stalls that accommodate standard passenger sedans, crossovers, minivans, and mid-to-large SUVs. Drivers of lifted pickup trucks or high-roof commercial vans should note the posted vertical clearance limit of 6 feet 10 inches (2.08 meters) at the garage entrances. Over-height vehicles can often utilize designated open-air surface spaces or nearby park-and-ride bays where overhead clearance is unrestricted.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Commuter traffic peaks sharply between 6:30 AM and 8:30 AM on Tuesday through Thursday mornings; arriving before 7:15 AM ensures quicker garage entry and prime parking spaces near the lower-level skywalks. When returning during the evening rush hour (5:00 PM to 7:00 PM), exit lanes onto Middlesex Turnpike and the Garden State Parkway ramp can experience short queues, so allow a few extra minutes. Be sure to note your exact level, section, and pillar code, as the multi-deck structures are extensive and look similar across tiers. Keep your ticket or record your license plate number as required by the automated parking management system, and pay at walk-up pay stations before returning to your vehicle to expedite your exit.
