Summary

In Wayne Township, New Jersey, on-street parking is controlled by street schedules attached to Chapter 200 of the Township Code: stopping and standing bans, posted parking time limits and designated angle-parking streets. A violation is punished by a fine not exceeding $75, imprisonment not exceeding 15 days, or both.

§ 200-4. Regulations not exclusive. ... The provisions of this article imposing a time limit on parking shall not relieve any person of the duty to observe other and more restrictive provisions prohibiting or limiting the stopping, standing or parking of vehicles as set forth in N.J.S.A. 39:4-138 or any other New Jersey statute or as hereinafter provided. § 200- ... 7. Stopping or standing prohibited. ... No person shall stop or stand a vehicle during the times specified in Schedule III (§ 200-31) of any day upon any of the streets or parts of streets described in said Schedule III, attached to and made part of this chapter. § 200-8. Parking time limited. No person shall park a vehicle for longer than the time limit shown in Schedule IV (§ 200-32) at any time between the hours listed in said Schedule IV of any day upon any of the streets or parts of streets described in Schedule IV, attached to and made a part of this chapter. § 200-9. Angle parking. ... No person shall park a vehicle upon any of the streets or parts thereof described in Schedule V (§ 200-33), attached to and made a part of this chapter, except at the angle designated and only within the painted white stall lines.

Full Breakdown

Article II of Chapter 200 of the Wayne Township Code works through a series of schedules. Each section states the rule and points to a schedule that lists the streets, so the answer for a given block depends on whether the street appears in the schedule.

Section 200-5.A bars parking at any time on the streets in Schedule I (§ 200-29), and § 200-6 bars parking between the hours specified in Schedule II (§ 200-30). Section 200-7 is stricter than a parking ban: no one can stop or stand a vehicle during the times specified in Schedule III (§ 200-31) on the streets described there. Section 200-8 sets time limits: no one can park longer than the limit shown in Schedule IV (§ 200-32) between the hours listed there on the Schedule IV streets.

Section 200-9 governs angle parking. On the streets described in Schedule V (§ 200-33), no one can park except at the angle designated and only within the painted white stall lines.

Section 200-4 makes the article non-exclusive. A posted time limit does not relieve anyone of the duty to observe other and more restrictive provisions limiting stopping, standing or parking under N.J.S.A. 39:4-138, any other New Jersey statute or later Township provisions. Section 200-1 adds that words used in Chapter 200 carry the meanings given in Subtitle 1 of Title 39 of the Revised Statutes of New Jersey.

Two related rules sit beside the street schedules. Under § 200-10, where owners send a written request, the Subtitle I, Title 39 traffic controls apply to listed semipublic properties under Schedules VI, VIA and VII, with the letters and plat plans kept in the Township Clerk's office. Under Article IIA, parking in a space reserved for disabled persons without a special vehicle identification card carries a fine of $250 for the first offense under § 200-10.5.

Violations & Fines

Section 200-3 punishes a violation of Chapter 200, on conviction, by a fine not exceeding $75 or imprisonment not exceeding 15 days or both. Parking in a space reserved for disabled persons without a special vehicle identification card is charged separately under § 200-10.5: a fine of $250 for the first offense and, for later offenses, a fine of at least $250 and up to 90 days' community service, or any combination.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between no parking and no stopping in Wayne Township?
Section 200-6 prohibits parking during the hours listed in Schedule II. Section 200-7 prohibits stopping or standing a vehicle during the times in Schedule III (§ 200-31), which is the stricter rule. A street listed in Schedule III cannot be used even for a brief stop during the printed times.
How do parking time limits work on Wayne Township streets?
Section 200-8 says no person can park a vehicle for longer than the time limit shown in Schedule IV (§ 200-32) between the hours listed in that schedule, on the streets described in it. The limit and the hours both come from the schedule entry, so they are tied to specific streets, not to the whole Township.
Where is angle parking required in Wayne Township?
On the streets or parts of streets described in Schedule V (§ 200-33). Under § 200-9, no one can park there except at the angle designated and only within the painted white stall lines. Parking outside the lines or at a different angle on a Schedule V street violates the section.
Does a posted time limit replace state parking law in Wayne Township?
No. Section 200-4 states that the article's time limits do not relieve any person of the duty to observe other and more restrictive provisions limiting stopping, standing or parking under N.J.S.A. 39:4-138, any other New Jersey statute, or later Township provisions. The stricter rule controls.
