Street improvement work will take place in West Philadelphia during the week of May 27th in the areas covered by the 16th and 19th Police Department – including portions of Vine Street, Aspen Street, Malvern Avenue, Wynnefield Avenue and some other areas. The work schedule includes temporary full street closures and parking restrictions. The work will be completed in separate phases – milling, adjusting of manhole covers, and resetting of utility boxes – which will take place in separate activities over the course of the week. 

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. If your car is towed, please contact your local Police District to determine its location.

Residents can now stay updated on the progress of their street using the PavePHL tool, housed on the StreetSmartPHL.phila.gov platform which allows the Streets Department to inform the public about some of its core services – paving, permitting, snow plowing and trash and recycling collections. The City’s new web map paving tracker allows residents to go online and view the progress of a street scheduled for paving.
