EXISTING BUILDING-CONSTRUCTION ORDER
Along the project frontage
One curb, between the property lines.
PROJECT EXPERIENCE / LOS ANGELES
Temporary No Parking to Maintain Through Traffic
A Los Angeles contractor had temporary no parking along its frontage for building construction. For off-site sidewalk, curb and gutter work under its A-Permit, it needed additional parking restrictions to maintain through traffic on a narrow street.
THE FIELD CONSTRAINT
The cut lines and five-foot buffer narrowed the space for through traffic.
The cut lines defined the limits of the concrete work. On this project, the traffic control layout also had to provide a five-foot buffer between those lines and through traffic. The contractor expected the concrete work to occupy roughly half the roadway. On a street this narrow, parked vehicles along the opposite curb would further reduce the width available for traffic to pass.
The existing order cleared one curb along the property. Keeping a path open through the work zone required parking restrictions over the full traffic control limits, which extended beyond the cut lines and the project frontage. The contractor’s initial request identified about 100 feet of the opposite curb.
THE COORDINATION DECISION
Use the north property line to distinguish the two orders.
The Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) flagged an active posting order at the address. The contractor supplied its log number and monthly extension correspondence. Public Ready used those records to identify the frontage order and referenced it in the revised request.
Public Ready specified where the additional posting would begin, how far it would run, and which curbs it would cover. When LADOT requested the work permit for the sidewalk job, Public Ready supplied the permit documentation.
ADDITIONAL OFF-SITE WORK ORDER
Beyond the north property line
Both curbs, extending 150 feet north from the boundary.
DOCUMENTED OUTCOME
LADOT issued a separate temporary tow-away no parking order.
Public Ready paid the posting fee and confirmed the dates and limits with the contractor before the restriction began. The order restricted parking around the clock on both sides for 150 feet north of the property line, covering the additional curb space needed for the planned through-traffic path.
Based on Public Ready’s project records and field coordination details.
