Universal City generally allows on-street parking on public streets but prohibits parking on sidewalks, within 15 feet of fire hydrants, and in posted no-parking zones under Texas Transportation Code Chapter 545.
Universal City allows residents and guests to park on most public streets, but state and local rules set clear limits. Under Texas Transportation Code Section 545.302, vehicles may not park within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, within 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection, within 30 feet of a flashing signal or stop sign, in front of a public or private driveway, or on a sidewalk. Universal City Police enforce these restrictions along with any locally posted no-parking zones, time-limited zones near schools, and restricted parking near Randolph AFB gates. Vehicles must park with the curbside wheels within 18 inches of the curb and cannot face against the flow of traffic. Parking a vehicle on the same public street for more than 24 consecutive hours can subject it to being tagged as abandoned.
