PHILADELPHIA – Several streets in the Northwest and North Philadelphia areas are scheduled for street improvement with temporary, full street closures and parking restrictions for the week of June 29, announced Streets Commissioner Carlton Williams.  Weather may alter the work schedule.

Streets Scheduled for Paving

Streets listed below are scheduled for paving, a final phase in the resurfacing process. Operations for the paving will be performed during the day hours, between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. The anticipated time to complete the paving of each street segment varies and is dependent on the length and width of the street. Work is being performed by City crews.

To complete the work, residents should expect parking restrictions.  Temporary ‘No Parking’ signs will be posted in advance of each scheduled activity.  Residents are urged to move their cars from the work sites when temporary ‘No Parking’ signs are posted, so that vehicles are not towed.  In the event a car is towed, please contact your local Police District to determine its location.  Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling around the work areas.

Residents can stay updated on the progress of their street using the PavePHL tool, the City’s web map paving tracker which allows residents to go online and view the progress of a street scheduled for paving. It is one of the several components housed on the StreetSmartPHL.phila.gov platform which allows the Streets Department to communicate to the public about some of its most prominent and visible core services – including paving and permitting.  Future functions of the site will include trackers for snow plowing and trash and recycling collections.

While the Streets Department will make every effort to minimize disruption to traffic, residents are urged to plan ahead and use alternative routes when traveling in these areas. The Streets Department thanks residents in advance for their patience and cooperation as we work to improve city streets.
