Parking Enforcement Services

The Department of Public Works provides on-street parking enforcement services in the District to improve public safety, enhance quality of life, and spur economic competitiveness by maintaining access to short-term public parking. These goals are achieved by encouraging voluntary compliance with parking regulations and taking enforcement actions as necessary.

Parking enforcement services include ticketing for parking violations and additional enforcement through booting, towing and impoundment if tickets remain unpaid. The Department is also responsible for investigating and removing abandoned and junk vehicles from the street.
