Revesby station park and ride is essential for traveling anywhere in Revesby, good for quicker visits as well as days of long commutes via train.

On the lower levels is the usual 3 hour parking with about 3-4 accessible spaces near the entrance and exit. On the upper level in the park and ride is almost a whole floor worth of accessible spaces near the lift down to the ground level. The carpark has 2 lifts, one near the corner where the crossing is heading towards the station, as well as one in the middle of the carpark located along Haydock Lane. The corner lift only goes up to A levels (eg 2A, 3A etc), whereas the middle Haydock Lane lift goes to both A and B levels (eg 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B etc).

The carpark has no bathrooms however towards the station there is both the public toilet in the main station carpark as well as the usual station bathrooms locked by staff.

The park and ride section of the carpark is free, provided that you use your opal card some time after parking, otherwise there is a fee.

The Abel Reserve public bathrooms are the only public accessible bathrooms located in Revesby. Many of the businesses and cafes around Revesby have restricted movement and tight spaces in their bathrooms, this public toilet being on of the only options. They are located in the carpark of Revesby station near the bus station and public phone. 

The bathrooms are unisex and accessible with rails and lots of space to move around. At my time of visiting (Friday 13 June 2025 approx 1pm)  the bathrooms were not very clean, I have no knowledge of who is responsible for maintaining them or how regularly they are maintained. As these are often the bathrooms that are next available for locations in Revesby they are not ideal. Nearby are the train station bathrooms which are significantly better maintained, however are under lock and key by staff.

As these bathrooms are located inside the carpark of Revesby station there are lots of accessible parking spaces nearby. There is also the main carpark nearby as well as many other public spaces available in the surrounding area.
