Relaxed Parking for the Jewish Holiday of Sukkot

The Los Angeles City Department of Transportation will relax parking measures over the Sukkot holiday starting at 2 p.m. on Wednesday. The measures will remain in place until 10 p.m. Saturday.

Following the Jewish holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur comes the festival of Sukkot, which begins tonight at sundown. While Sukkot lasts eight days, it's the first two days that are religious holidays where many Jews attend synagogue.

To help ease traffic congestion during this time, the Los Angeles City Department of Transportation is implementing  the same relaxed parking rules throughout the Westside, Hollywood and the Valley as it did on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

While there will be relaxed enforcement of street cleaning, time limits and preferential parking areas, please note that meters, tow-away zones and other safety violations will be enforced.
