Full Breakdown

A. 39:4-138, so a driver can still be cited under state law even where no local time limit applies. Enforcement requires the time-limit signage to actually be posted on the affected block before a ticket can issue, consistent with the sign-posting requirement applied elsewhere in the chapter.

Violations & Fines

No fine is set specifically in § 7-12, so the chapter's general penalty in § 7-4 controls: a fine of not more than $250 or imprisonment for up to 15 days, or both, for a first violation, with tickets issued by the Woodbridge Police Department and heard in Municipal Court.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long can I park on a time-limited Woodbridge street?
It depends on the block: Section 7-12's schedule sets limits street by street, ranging from 30 minutes on streets like Archangela Avenue during school hours up to two hours on streets such as Avenel Street. The posted sign on that block controls the exact limit and hours.
Does a local time limit replace New Jersey's state parking law in Woodbridge?
No. Section 7-5.1 states that time limits imposed by the chapter do not relieve a driver of the duty to observe more restrictive stopping, standing or parking rules under N.J.S.A. 39:4-138 or other state statutes, so state law can still apply on top of the local limit.
What is the penalty for overstaying a time limit in Woodbridge?
Section 7-12 does not set its own fine, so the general chapter penalty in Section 7-4 applies: up to $250 or up to 15 days in jail, or both, for a first offense, with the case heard in Woodbridge Municipal Court.
