Guilford County does not paint or regulate curb-color parking markings, because its roads are state-maintained by NCDOT, which controls all pavement markings and traffic-control devices. Residents may not paint curbs or add their own no-parking markings on a public right-of-way. County parks bar parking outside designated areas.
Curb-color coding (red, yellow, blue) is a municipal traffic-engineering tool, and Guilford County does not use or enforce it because it has no municipal street system; roads outside the cities are part of the state highway network maintained by the North Carolina Department of Transportation. Only NCDOT (or the city, within its limits) may install and enforce official pavement markings, signs, and curb markings under NC Chapter 20; a private property owner may not paint a public curb or fabricate a no-parking zone on a state right-of-way. On private commercial lots, fire-lane and accessible-space striping follow the fire code and accessibility standards rather than a county curb-paint ordinance. In Guilford County parks, the Uniform Park Rules simply require vehicles to
Painting or altering markings on a public street or right-of-way, or ignoring official NCDOT markings, is enforced under NC Chapter 20. In county parks, parking outside designated areas violates the Uniform Park Rules and can be enforced as trespassing.
