Montgomery County does not paint or regulate curb markings on public streets. Colored curbs (fire zones, no-parking, loading) are installed and enforced by the borough or township, or PennDOT on state routes, under the PA Vehicle Code. Residents may not paint public curbs themselves.
Curb color codes and painted no-parking markings on public roads are the responsibility of the municipality that owns the road, acting under the Vehicle Code (75 Pa.C.S.) and PennDOT's traffic-control standards. In Montgomery County, boroughs and townships install and maintain yellow, red, or other curb markings and enforce them; on state highways PennDOT controls markings. A private resident painting a public curb to reserve parking is not authorized and the marking has no legal effect. The county government does not maintain street curbs; within county parks, parking is limited to marked spaces designated by staff.
Parking against a lawfully marked curb is ticketed by local police or parking enforcement per the municipal schedule. Unauthorized painting of a public curb can be treated as defacement or an ordinance violation by the municipality.
