Sioux Falls Ch. 124 designates loading zones on Phillips Avenue and side streets in the downtown core, with 30-minute commercial limits during business hours and overnight delivery encouraged for large trucks.
Loading zones on Phillips Avenue, 10th Street, and 11th Street allow commercial vehicles to stop for up to 30 minutes between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Outside those hours, restrictions lift. Trucks over 26 feet are encouraged to deliver before 7 a.m. or after 6 p.m. to reduce traffic conflicts. Idling diesels in loading zones for more than 10 minutes may trigger nuisance complaints. Wells Fargo Tower, Citi office, and Avera downtown clinics use designated dock entrances. Large trucks may not block bike lanes or transit stops.
Overstaying the 30-minute limit brings tickets of about 50 dollars; blocking a bike lane or transit stop adds another 50 dollars; chronic offenders may have business license reviewed.
