Alternate Side Parking Suspended Again Amid Lingering Snow Piles

By BoroPark24 Staff

The Mamdani administration announced today that Alternate Side Parking (ASP) regulations will be suspended through Saturday, February 14, 2026, to facilitate ongoing snow operations.

In addition, ASP will also be suspended from Monday, February 16, 2026, through Wednesday, February 18, 2026, in observance of Presidents’ Day, the Lunar New Year, Losar, and Ash Wednesday.

Despite the suspension of street cleaning regulations, the city confirmed that payment at parking meters will remain in effect throughout all five boroughs.

With the latest announcement, Alternate Side Parking will have been suspended for two consecutive weeks - and for most of the past three weeks overall - leaving many residents wondering when regular enforcement will resume.

For drivers, the suspension has provided temporary relief during weeks marked by repeated snowfalls and frigid temperatures. However, some residents say the continued pause reflects ongoing challenges in clearing snow from residential streets.

Large piles of snow remain along curbs and at corners, making it difficult, and in some cases impossible, for sanitation crews to conduct effective street cleaning.
