Here’s an update from City Councilmember Bill De Blasio about the DOT’s suspension of alternate side parking in Park Slope and other areas of Brooklyn:
Starting Monday alternate side parking rules will go back into effect in Park Slope and street sweepers will resume collection of trash and debris from neighborhood streets.
As some of you may know, on July 7th, the DOT suspended alternate side parking rules in Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, Boerum Hill, and Gowanus. The affected area extends east to west from Court Street to Fourth Avenue, and from Wyckoff Street and St. Marks Place south to the Gowanus Expressway and 15th Street.
The DOT estimates that it will take six to eight weeks to replace all signs in these areas. I will ensure that all affected residents are notified as soon as the rules are reinstated in these areas.
If you would like more information on the dates of these suspensions or on the areas affected by these changes, please contact my office at 718-854-9791.
I spoke to someone at 311 last night saying that they had a posted alert that the alternate side rules were BACK in effect in Carroll Gardens, too. can you confirm this?
