In all other locations, the parking ban will remain in effect. As bans are lifted, on a rolling basis, we will send email and text message alerts to residents and businesses in those areas. As they are announced, streets will be listed with a map here as well as on our social media feeds. Residents may also call 311 (617-666-3311) for a list of streets.

Until the ban is lifted on your street, please refrain from parking on the even side of the street (unless otherwise posted). Vehicles parked on the even side where the ban remains in effect may be subject to ticketing and towing to ensure City crews can conduct important snow removal operations.
Property owners will have until 10 a.m. on Thurs. morning, Feb. 12, to shovel sidewalks before enforcement begins.

We understand that this amount of snow presents unique challenges in terms of snow removal, however we must provide safe access for all residents, and we ask property owners to do their part to aid in this effort.
Finally, as a reminder, please remember to review important information about clearing snow and ice from roofs to prevent roof collapse, available here. We thank you, again, for your continued support and cooperation in this extremely difficult winter season.
