What are the dimensions of roadside parallel parking spaces?
1 Answers
According to national regulations, the dimensions of roadside parallel parking spaces are as follows: large vehicle parking spaces are 4 meters wide and 7 to 10 meters long, depending on the vehicle type. Small vehicle parking spaces are 2.2 to 2.5 meters wide and 5 meters long. The adjacent road should be 5 meters wide for single-sided small vehicle parking, 6 meters for double-sided, and 8 meters for large vehicles. Below is an introduction to parking space markings: 1. Introduction: Parking spaces are composed of 0.15-meter-wide markings, usually in white. Yellow may be used for ground markings, and the vehicle orientation within the space is often indicated with white road marking paint. Standard parking spaces measure 5.3m x 2.4m, with adjustments allowed based on actual conditions as long as parking is not affected. Each space is numbered to prevent incorrect parking and assist drivers in locating their vehicles. 2. White Markings: White is commonly used in parking lot markings due to its high visibility under strong outdoor light, creating a unified appearance. Some underground garages even use white for no-parking grid lines, such as the markings in the underground parking lot at Jade Park in Beiqijia, Changping, by Jingkai Tengda. Additionally, white markings can indicate that the parking space is a paid parking spot.
