Mayor Announces Food Truck Zones

Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake announced the city is launching a pilot program that creates specialized food truck zones.

The Department of Transportation will be adding signs indicating areas reserved for food trucks to operate.

In May, city officials told some food trucks they were operating in violation of city law and were in danger of being shut down.

The city will assess the program at the end of the 2011 calendar year. 

None of the newly created food truck zones will be located in North Baltimore.

• 500 block of Baltimore Street, on the south side of the street—one truck at this location
