What does a yellow zigzag marking alongside the carriageway edge indicate by itself?

Correct answer

That general parking is prohibited and the area is reserved for a special use.

It prohibits general parking because the place is reserved for a short-stay special use, such as a bus stop or loading. By itself it is not a general ban on every stop. Nor does it authorise any car to stop there: respect the reserved use, applicable signs and prohibitions. If its effect is limited to certain periods, those are specified by a vertical sign.
