2 Answers
To apply for parking space marking, you need to go through the approval process at the local traffic management department and urban management bureau. The meanings represented by parking spaces of different colors: Parking spaces are categorized into the following 4 types by color: Yellow parking spaces: Exclusive parking spaces. Common yellow exclusive parking spaces include those for police use, epidemic prevention support, new energy vehicles, and emergency rescue vehicles. The parking space signs and markings are labeled with relevant text, and they are also free parking spaces. Other private vehicles should not occupy them. White parking spaces: Paid parking spaces, the most common type currently, can be seen on almost every road. Among them, solid white lines indicate no time restrictions for parking, while dashed white lines indicate time-limited parking. The specific time is subject to the markings on the parking space. Blue parking spaces: Free parking spaces, but with time restrictions. The free parking period will be indicated on the road surface or on signage. Green parking spaces: Only available in a few cities, such as Nanning, these are time-limited free parking spaces designed to meet short-term parking needs, addressing temporary parking requirements for shopping or errands.
As a regular car owner, I've tried applying for parking space markings in my own garage. Generally, you need to measure the parking space dimensions first to avoid making it too small and affecting access. Contact your local urban management department or property management company to check if a permit is required. In our residential area, we needed to fill out a form for application, specifying the location and reason. They would send an inspector to verify if it meets safety standards. Once approved, hire a professional line-marking company with the necessary tools to spray the paint, usually costing a few hundred yuan. I recommend using reflective paint for better visibility at night, preventing others from parking too close. The entire process can be completed within one to two weeks, and simple maintenance like regular checks for paint peeling is sufficient.
