Lehigh County has no loading-zone rule; municipalities set them. Allentown limits vehicles in a marked loading zone to 20 minutes of loading activity, and to five minutes in a five-minute zone (§615-56).
Loading zones are established and enforced by municipalities in Pennsylvania, not the county. Under Allentown's Chapter 615, no person may leave a vehicle parked, stopped, standing or drifted (to conceal a chalk mark) without loading activity for more than 20 minutes in a marked loading zone, or more than five minutes in a five-minute zone. Residential-permit holders are not exempt from loading-zone or five-minute-zone restrictions. Loading zones are posted with signs and are common in Allentown's Center City and commercial corridors. Other Lehigh Valley municipalities designate their own loading zones. For zone locations or a business loading permit, contact the Allentown Parking Authority; the county plays no role in curbside loading regulation.
Overstaying a loading or five-minute zone draws standard Allentown parking fines: $15 within 10 days, $25 after, up to $100 after 20 days (§615-58).
