When is street sweeping in Platt Park?
Street sweeping in Platt Park happens once a month from April through November. The posted signs in the neighborhood most often name the first Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday of the month, depending on the block[1].
The two sides of one block often have different sweeping days. The exact day for your car depends on where it is parked and which side of the street is being swept[1].
Reading the sign on your block
Look for the red and white sign on your block. It lists the sweeping day for that side of the street. The rule applies only to the curb where your car is parked. The sign on your block is the law[4].
Some signs include hours, but many do not. If no hours are posted, the restriction can apply all day. The city’s sign inventory is a snapshot; signs change. Always confirm against the physical sign[4].
