One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

RV parking is now banned between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. on more than a dozen streets around the coastal neighborhoods of L.A. in City Councilmember Traci Park’s district.

The L.A. City Council approved the move in a 9-2 vote on Wednesday.

Councilmembers Eunisses Hernandez and Hugo Soto-Martinez voted against it, and Councilmembers Bob Blumenfield, Marqueece Harris-Dawson, John Lee, and Katy Yaroslavsky were absent.

What streets are affected

Parking oversized vehicles, which is anything more than 22 feet long or 7 feet high, will be banned during those overnight hours on the following streets in Council District 11:

West Los Angeles

  • Both sides of Barrington Avenue between Sardis Avenue and Brookhaven Avenue

Westchester

  • West side of Barnsley Avenue between 83rd Street and 85th Place

Venice

  • Glencoe Avenue between Venice Boulevard and Zanja Street

Cypress Grove

  • Both sides of Lindblade Street between 11891 Lindblade Street and 11805 Lindblade Street

Playa Vista

  • Both sides of Millennium Drive between Village Drive and Westlawn Drive
  • Both sides of Westlawn Avenue between Millenium Drive and Bluff Creek Drive
  • Both sides of Bluff Creek Drive between McConnell Avenue and Village Drive
  • Both sides of Kiyot Way between Villosa Place and Pacific Promenade 
  • Both sides of Pacific Promenade between Seabluff Drive and Para Way 
  • Both sides of Playa Vista Drive between Jefferson Boulevard and Pacific Promenade

Marina Peninsula 

  • Both sides of Hurricane Street between Pacific Court and Canal Court
  • Both sides of Pacific Avenue between Mast Street and Northstar Street

Playa Del Rey

  • Both sides of Pershing Drive between Manitoba Street and Waterview Street

The Los Angeles Department of Transportation will be posting “tow away, no parking” signs around the impacted street segments.

These restrictions will add to the overnight RV parking bans that the city council approved at least three times last year, mostly in Councilmember Park’s district.
