Montgomery regulates on-street parking through Chapter 26 of the city code. Time-limited parking zones exist in the downtown area, and vehicles may not be parked on streets for extended periods without moving.
Montgomery's traffic and parking code (Chapter 26) establishes on-street parking regulations. Downtown areas have metered and time-limited zones (typically 2-hour limits). Residential streets generally allow overnight parking but prohibit abandoned or inoperable vehicles. Vehicles parked on public streets for more than 72 consecutive hours without moving may be considered abandoned. No parking is allowed within 15 feet of a fire hydrant or blocking driveways and sidewalks.
Parking violations result in tickets with fines. Vehicles parked over 72 hours or abandoned may be towed at the owner's expense.
