What is indicated by a white curb?

A white curb indicates that the area is designated as a loading and unloading zone only. This means that vehicles are permitted to stop temporarily for the purpose of loading or unloading passengers or goods, but they cannot park there for an extended period of time. This regulation helps ensure that such areas are available for their intended purpose, facilitating the quick and efficient movement of people and goods without blocking traffic.

The presence of a white curb signifies specific and limited use of the space, emphasizing its role in supporting logistical needs or transit operations. It is crucial for drivers to recognize and adhere to these markings, as improper use—like long-term parking—can disrupt traffic flow and lead to potential penalties.
