On-street parking in Vienna is generally allowed on residential streets unless signed otherwise. Vehicles may not be parked in the same spot on a public street for more than 72 consecutive hours, and parking is prohibited within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, 20 feet of a crosswalk, and 30 feet of a stop sign.
The Town of Vienna regulates on-street parking through its Town Code and enforces state statutes under VA Code §46.2-1200 et seq. The 72-hour rule means any vehicle left in the same public right-of-way location for more than three consecutive days is subject to ticketing and towing as an unattended vehicle. Parking on sidewalks, within intersections, blocking driveways, and on lawns within the right-of-way is prohibited. Certain streets near Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts, the Vienna Community Center, and downtown Church Street have posted time-limited or permit-only zones, especially during summer concert season when non-resident parking congestion increases. Residential Parking Permit Districts can be established by petition where commuter or event parking creates hardship. Commercial vehicles over 12,000 pounds GVWR generally cannot be parked overnight on residential streets. Enforcement is primarily complaint-driven by Vienna Police parking enforcement.
