Question:
Hi I am trying to find out the law regarding single yellow lines in residential area… Does it mean no parking whatsoever or is their another interpretation? Your help and response would be most appreciated..
Answer:
A solid single yellow line alongside the kerb in a residential area means no parking is permitted there at any time.
A single yellow broken line alongside the kerb means no parking is permitted there during the times shown on an accompanying road sign.
