The Los Angeles Department of Transportation has launched a new service to install temporary food pick-up parking zone signs near restaurants. The new signs will be supplied and installed free of charge near restaurants and other food providers that apply and are approved to receive a sign. The application is available at ladot.lacity.org/pickupzone.
The new program is designed to help restaurants by providing additional short-term parking options as they seek to accommodate the increased demand for food pick-up. While restaurants are currently closed to dine-in customers, many continue to rely on pick-up and delivery as a source of revenue.
Upon receiving an application, LADOT will review the request. When an application is approved, LADOT will print and install the sign free-of-charge within two business days. The new sign will designate a single parking spot where customers may park while they pick-up food from a nearby business. Motorists will not be allowed to use the spot for longer than 10 minutes.
LADOT continues to adjust operations to assist residents and businesses to comply with social distancing requirements to limit the spread of the novel coronavirus. These include relaxed parking restrictions, deferred payment deadlines for citations, online hearing and permitting procedures, and changes to levels of service on transit lines.
