They obviously have to control parking in some way, as it's beside an

Then the station should build themselves a car park. Why did the
council approve a station with no car park?

It was built before cars were invented. Next point?


Why haven't they built a car park?

Strange sometimes. Dumpton Park (near Broadstairs) is a commuter station.
Not as busy as it used to be, perhaps, but the car park is tiny (about 8
spaces). Yet there used to be a load of spare land nearby, which was used
for a small housing estate.

Now you have to drive through the housing estate to get to the car park.
