B-36 No stopping
What it means
Prohibits voluntary stopping, including parking, on the side of the road where it stands. It does not cover a stop required by traffic conditions or rules, such as a queue or red light. It usually ends at the next junction, subject to the exception in section 32(2), or when cancelled, for example by T-25c. B-35 replaces it with a no-parking restriction. Observe supplementary plates and places where signs specifically permit stopping or parking.
Plate T-24 under B-36 means a vehicle left there will be towed away at the owner's expense.
