Montgomery County does not designate or enforce loading zones. On-street loading zones are established by the borough or township (or PennDOT on state routes) by ordinance under the PA Vehicle Code. Off-street loading requirements for businesses are set by municipal zoning under the Municipalities Planning Code.
Loading and unloading zones are a municipal traffic and zoning function in Pennsylvania. Boroughs and townships create curbside loading zones by ordinance and post them under authority of the Vehicle Code (75 Pa.C.S.); on state highways PennDOT controls curb use. Off-street loading-berth requirements for commercial and industrial buildings are written into each municipality's zoning ordinance under the Municipalities Planning Code (Act 247). Montgomery County government neither designates public loading zones nor sets loading-berth standards; it manages loading only for its own county facilities.
Loading-zone violations are ticketed by local police or parking enforcement under the municipal schedule; commercial loading-berth deficiencies are handled by the municipal zoning officer at permit review.
