white zone

No parking strip

A white zone is a designated curbside area at an airport or public building where vehicles may stop briefly for passenger loading and unloading but not for parking: Pull into the white zone—I'll be right out.

The term comes from the white-painted curb markings that distinguish these areas from red (no stopping) or other restricted zones.
