Tame Bridge Parkway is a railway station in the north of the borough of Sandwell, in the West Midlands, England, close to the boundary with Walsall. The station is operated by West Midlands Railway. It is situated on the Chase Line 9 miles (14 km) north of Birmingham New Street, part of the former Grand Junction Railway, opened in 1837.

The station was opened by British Rail in 1990, having been built at a cost of £600,000. It takes its name from the nearby River Tame.

Pedestrian and vehicular access is via the A4031 Walsall Road.

In early 2023, land adjacent to the station was used as a filming location for the BBC One drama This Town, produced by Steven Knight.^[1]
