§4-08(e)(9) prohibits any person from stopping, standing, or parking vehicles within a designated bicycle lane. §4-08(f)(1) prohibits double parking on the roadway side of a vehicle stopped, standing, or parked at the curb, except a person may stand a commercial vehicle alongside a vehicle parked at the curb at such locations and during such hours that stopping, stand, or parking is not prohibited, while expeditiously making pickups, deliveries or service calls, provided that there is no unoccupied parking space or designated loading zone on either side of the street within 100 feet that can be used for such standing…A person may stand a commercial vehicle along the roadway side of a bicycle lane provided all other conditions of this paragraph are met.

Proper Double Parking of Commercial Vehicles Next to Bicycle Lanes

No vehicle is allowed to block a bicycle lane at any time. If there is no curbside spaces on either side of the street within 100 feet of a delivery/pickup location, commercial vehicles may stand, “double parked,” next to a bicycle lane. If there is no active loading or unloading taking place standing a vehicle in such a manner can result in a violation. Please note also that this does not apply to midtown Manhattan.
