The Time to Stop Worrying About Street Cleaning Parking Rules is Near

The District is almost done with residential street sweeping — and the accompanying parking restrictions — for the year.

D.C. Department of Public Works crews end their street cleaning tomorrow and don’t intend to do it again until March 1. Drivers can park along neighborhood sweeping routes without having to worry about moving their cars during that period.

DPW workers then will focus their attention on leaf collection, which begins Monday and ends Jan. 9. Crews are expected to remove leaves in each D.C. neighborhood at least twice. More details on the agency’s collection schedule are online.

As part of leaf collection season, DPW employees also will pick up Christmas trees from Dec. 26 to Jan. 8.
