Spring Hill, TN Parking Rules: Street Parking Limits (2026)

Section 15-604 opens with a general rule and then lists eleven specific prohibitions. No person shall park a vehicle in violation of any sign placed or erected by the city or state. Beyond signs, a vehicle cannot be parked on a sidewalk, in front of and opposite of a public or private driveway, within an intersection or within 15 feet of one, within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, within a pedestrian crosswalk, within 50 feet of a railroad crossing, or upon any bridge.

Fire station frontage gets the longest distances. A vehicle cannot park within 20 feet of the driveway entrance to any fire station, and on the side of the street opposite the entrance it cannot park within 75 feet of the entrance. Parking is also barred alongside or opposite any street excavation or obstruction when other traffic would be obstructed, on the roadway side of any vehicle stopped or parked at the edge or curb of a street, and alongside any curb painted yellow or red by the city.

Other sections in Chapter 6 fill in how to park where parking is allowed. Under § 15-601(B), every parked vehicle must have its right wheels approximately parallel to and within 18 inches of the right edge or curb of the street. Under § 15-601(A), a driver leaving a vehicle unattended sets the brakes, stops the motor, removes the ignition key and turns the front wheels toward the nearest curb or gutter. Section 15-602 requires parking at the indicated angle on signed or marked streets and bars angle parking by any vehicle with a trailer attached or a length in excess of 24 feet. Section 15-603 bars occupying more than one designated space.
