Street Parking Restrictions & Debris Removal Updates

Effective Immediately:

  • Canyon Crest Drive: No street parking from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM, seven days a week, for approximately two months. This is to facilitate heavy equipment access for removing 80,000 to 100,000 cubic yards of sediment and debris from behind the Sierra Madre Dam.
  • Other Areas: All other "No Street Parking" orders are lifted. However, streets may be temporarily closed for additional cleanup and water leak repairs.
County Crews:
  • County crews will also clear and maintain all other Sierra Madre debris basins. Currently, no additional street parking restrictions are required for these locations.
Resident Access:
  • County personnel will assist residents in accessing and leaving their homes during this work. All persons in the area, whether in vehicles or walking, are asked to follow the directions of County traffic control staff.
Private Property Debris Removal:
  • City Public Works crews will not enter private property for mud and debris removal.
  • Residents will have designated days to move storm-related debris to the street for removal. Household and landscaping waste are not permitted.
  • The exact timeframe will be announced after storm events, considering weekends and holidays.
Important: After street sweeping, depositing additional debris is prohibited and may result in fines. For more information, contact Sierra Madre Public Works at (626) 355-7135.
