  Alternate Side Parking                        
  The City suspends alternate side parking      
  (street cleaning) regulations, for both       
  street cleaning purposes and traffic flow,    
  on the 34 legal and religious holidays        
  listed below. This includes suspension of     
  street cleaning regulations at metered        
  spaces. This policy is implemented jointly    
  by the Department of Transportation,the       
  Department of Sanitation, and the Police      
  Department. On major legal holidays, No       
  Stopping, No Standing, and No Parking         
  regulations are suspended, except where       
  those regulations are normally in effect      
  seven days a week. On all other holidays,     
  only Street Cleaning Rules are suspended.     
  All other regulations remain in effect.       
  Parking meter regulations will be suspended   
  on major legal holidays.

  Emergency Suspensions of Alternate Side       
  Parking Regulations                           
  Alternate Side Parking Regulations may be     
  changed from time to time because of snow     
  emergencies, inclement weather conditions or  
  other emergencies. In these circumstances,    
  the information is provided to the news       
  media. Call the New York City Call Center,    
  311, to obtain information on emergency       
  suspensions of the regulations.               
                                                
  The City carefully considers whether to       
  suspend Alternate Side Parking regulations    
  in anticipation of a significant snowfall     
  and then when to reinstate them in the days   
  following a storm.                            
                                                
  The Departments of Transportation and         
  Sanitation consult weather reports            
  continuously both before and during           
  snowfalls in order to determine whether       
  suspension is necessary. As weather patterns  
  can change quickly, this decision must        
  sometimes be made late in the day.            
                                                
  In the days following a storm, the goal is    
  to reinstate Alternate Side Parking           
  Regulations as soon as possible so that       
  plows can begin removing snow and ice from    
  the curbside lanes. This helps clear parking  
  lanes and catch basins, which reduces the     
  possibility of street flooding when snow and  
  ice melts and also helps return street        
  cleaning operations back to normal.           
                                                
  The City works to keep our streets as clear   
  and safe as possible while trying to          
  minimizing inconvenience for all New          
  Yorkers.                                      
                                                
  Alternate Side Parking rules were suspended   
  on December 19, December 21-22, December 31,  
  2009, January 8 and February 6, 2010 to       
  facilitate snow removal.                      
                                                
  Temporary Suspensions of Street Cleaning      
  Regulations                                   
  Street Cleaning Regulations (SCR) may be      
  suspended temporarily in parts of the City    
  in order to post new regulations. This        
  program is a cooperative Department of        
  Transportation/Department of Sanitation       
  effort to change existing street cleaning     
  rules, as well as to replace missing or       
  damaged parking signage.                      
                                                
  When the Department of Sanitation makes a     
  determination to change street cleaning       
  rules in an affected area, the regulations    
  are suspended temporarily to allow the        
  Department of Transportation to post new      
  signs describing the new rules. This          
  suspension does not affect other parking      
  rules which are not Street Cleaning           
  Regulations.                                  
                                                
  When the posting of new signage is            
  completed, the Department of Sanitation       
  provides a weeklong orientation period        
  during which its crews clean the streets      
  according to the newly posted schedule but    
  do not issue summonses. At the conclusion of  
  the orientation period, enforcement of the    
  new rules takes effect.                       
                                                
  Park Slope Alternate Side Parking Suspension  
  Study (December 2008)                         
  During the Summer of 2008 DOT suspended       
  alternate side parking (ASP) in Park Slope.   
  This study finds the suspension caused        
  minimal impact on traffic and parking         
  conditions in that neighborhood.              
                                                
  DOT Advances Reduced Alternate Side Parking   
  Regulation Pilot Program in Bronx Community   
  District 8 to Simplify Parking and Reduce     
  Vehicle Trips                                 
                                                
  Alternate Side Parking Regulations will be    
  temporarily suspended starting on Monday,     
  Jan. 4, 2010 in parts of the Kingsbridge,     
  Kingsbridge Heights and Van Cortlandt         
  Village sections of Bronx Community District  
  8 for approximately six to eight weeks as     
  the DOT installs some 1,400 signs with new,   
  reduced regulations. Meanwhile, the first     
  phase of this project is now complete, with   
  signs in Riverdale, Spuyten Duyvil, Marble    
  Hill and Kingsbridge west of Broadway         
  (included) having been replaced since Oct.    
  28. The newly posted regulations will be      
  enforceable starting on Monday, Jan. 11,      
  giving residents two weeks to adjust to the   
  new rules. See details.
