Upland, CA Parking Rules: Loading Zones (2026)

Upland designates and enforces loading zones through its Title 10 parking provisions. The City Manager or designee is authorized to establish time limits for parking on city streets and to post signs, install meters, and mark curbs or pavement to indicate those limits — the mechanism by which loading zones are created and signed. Chapter 10.36 governs stopping, standing, and parking for certain purposes, and Chapter 10.40 designates streets and city-owned facilities where parking is restricted. Curb colors in Upland follow the uniform statewide meaning under the California Vehicle Code and the CA MUTCD: a yellow curb marks a commercial loading zone (loading/unloading of freight or passengers for commercial vehicles, usually for a posted short period), and a white curb marks a passenger loading zone for the immediate loading or unloading of passengers (and sometimes mail). Vehicles in a loading zone must be actively loading or unloading and must observe the posted or stenciled time limit; using a loading zone for general parking, or staying past the limit, is a violation. Because curb-color rules are set statewide, the same colors mean the same thing in Upland as elsewhere in California, while the location of each zone is a local decision.
