Milwaukee winter parking regulations back in effect citywide beginning at 6 p.m.

MILWAUKEE -- City of Milwaukee Department of Public Works Commissioner Ghassan Korban announced Tuesday, December 29th that winter parking rules and regulations are back in effect citywide beginning at 6:00 p.m.

DPW Parking Services ambassadors will start enforcing the winter rules at 6:00 p.m.to help ensure that City streets can be plowed curb to curb if possible following yesterday’s record snow fall.

The relaxed parking rules had been in effect since December 22 due to the unseasonably warm, dry weather.  However, City residents were reminded that if it did snow, winter rules would be reinstated to allow for safe, efficient and effective snow removal.

NOTE:  The City HAS NOT declared a snow emergency nor invoked the 4-inch rule. The 5-Day Exception Parking Area is also not affected.   

REMINDER:  Motorists who wish to park on City streets overnight must still have a valid overnight parking permit.  Permits are available online at milwaukee.gov/mpw.
