Vending zones in Bristol County cities restrict food trucks by distance from brick-and-mortar restaurants and schools. Fall River, New Bedford, and Taunton designate approved locations.
Fall River, New Bedford, and Taunton restrict mobile food vending to designated zones through local licensing. Typical distance buffers: 50 to 200 feet from brick-and-mortar restaurants, 100+ feet from school entrances, and away from crosswalks, bus stops, and fire hydrants. Time limits per spot commonly run 2 to 4 hours. New Bedford's State Pier and working waterfront events have dedicated vendor maps. Downtown Taunton Green and the Fall River waterfront at Battleship Cove include special event vending zones. Private property vending requires written owner permission plus zoning compliance; commercial zones generally allow, residential zones generally prohibit. Brockton-area street fairs draw cross-jurisdictional vendors under one-day permits.
Vending in restricted area: $100 to $500 per offense. Blocking pedestrian or vehicular access: immediate relocation order from police. Repeat violations: permit suspension by licensing board.
