West Hollywood began its annual tree pruning program on Sept. 14, with tree work expected to continue through March 2027.

The city’s contractor, West Coast Arborists, is beginning pruning along Sunset Boulevard, taking steps not to disrupt westbound lanes until after 10 a.m. to minimize the impact on morning commute traffic. During the coming weeks, crews will move to other commercial areas on Santa Monica Boulevard, Beverly Boulevard and major streets.

Following commercial area trimming, work will commence on residential arterial streets. Each day, trimming will start at 8 a.m. and work will be finished by 3 p.m.

The city will provide details to residents, businesses and motorists in advance of pruning work. “No parking” signs will be placed a minimum of 24 hours in advance of work, and door hangers or postings on trees will be placed a minimum of 72 hours in advance of residential tree-trimming.
