Passaic County does not create curbside loading zones. Municipalities designate and enforce loading zones on their streets under New Jersey traffic law. On a county road, changes to the curb or a new loading area require a County road permit.
Curbside loading zones, the painted or signed areas reserved for commercial pickup and delivery, are a municipal function in New Jersey. Each town establishes loading zones by ordinance under N.J.S.A. Title 39 and enforces the time limits and vehicle types allowed. Passaic County has no countywide loading-zone rule. Where a loading zone sits along a Passaic County road, the posted restriction is still generally enforced under the host municipality's ordinance, but any physical change to the curb line, a new commercial driveway, or roadway work in the county right-of-way requires a permit from the Passaic County Engineering Department. Business owners seeking a new loading zone should apply to their municipality; those altering access on a county road should also confirm
Parking in or blocking a loading zone is enforced by municipal parking enforcement under the local ordinance, with fines set by the town and towing possible. Unauthorized curb or right-of-way work on a county road can bring a County stop-work
