Keeping California streets in Los Angeles clean is a priority for StreetsLA, enhancing the quality of life for everyone in the city. One of the most visible efforts is the fleet of street sweepers, operated by dedicated full-time Motor Sweeper Operators. These services are essential to maintain the beauty and health of our neighborhoods.
Across Los Angeles, over 4,700 curb miles are designated with “No Parking” signs to facilitate effective street sweeping. This crucial process allows sweepers to reach the curb line, removing debris and preventing pollutants from entering rivers and the ocean. Regular street cleaning also plays a vital role in preventing local flooding by ensuring storm drains remain unobstructed.
Recently, adjustments to street sweeping schedules have become necessary due to staff shortages resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic’s financial impact and a subsequent citywide hiring freeze. Previously weekly routes are now being serviced biweekly. This means your California street in Los Angeles will be swept either during the first and third weeks of the month, or the second and fourth weeks.
To help residents stay informed and avoid parking tickets, StreetsLA offers a notification system. By signing up, you will receive alerts 24 and 48 hours before scheduled sweeping on your registered street. You can register for notifications by using the form available on the StreetsLA website, or utilize the interactive map to explore various locations and register for multiple streets where you frequently park your vehicle in Los Angeles.
It is important for all residents of California street and throughout Los Angeles to pay close attention to street signage and parking regulations. Parking in restricted zones on street sweeping days will result in citations. Utilizing the Street Sweeping Near Me webpage and the notification system will provide timely alerts about upcoming sweeping schedules for your street, allowing you to plan accordingly and contribute to cleaner streets. For detailed information regarding parking regulations and enforcement, please consult the LA Department of Transportation’s parking information pages.
Your cooperation in keeping California streets clear of parked vehicles on sweeping days is greatly appreciated. By ensuring access to the curb for street sweepers, residents play a direct role in creating safer, more mobile, and sustainable streets in Los Angeles. This collaborative effort helps maintain the cleanliness and appeal of our community.
