Parking Prohibited Street Sweeping Program
Introduction
The Parking Prohibited Street Sweeping Program (PPSSP) began as a pilot program which started on March 1st, 2021 and uses new signage to make sure that vehicles are moved so that the streets can be properly cleaned. There were four residential neighborhoods in the pilot. Once the pilot ended in 2022, the City Council approved expanding the pilot into other neighborhoods.
Beginning in 2023, City Council approved of potential expansion of the Parking Prohibited Street Sweeping Program into new neighborhoods in Milpitas. Studies were conducted to identify these areas.
What happened during the pilot and how do I continue to participate?
This pilot was focused on improving the effectiveness of street cleaning by getting the street sweepers more access to the street and curb. Signs were installed to let you know when cars should be moved. Be sure to check signs for specific street schedules as different sides of the street will be swept on different weeks.
Areas that participated in the pilot will continue to receive this service within the PPSSP. Those who are in these areas can continue to participate and help by moving your vehicle -- it's that easy! No parking anytime during sweeping times (10 am - 12 pm) during applicable days, even if the street sweeper has come through. Check your street sign for the applicable day.
New Areas
For 2025, two new areas will be added to the PPSSP. The first area is East Calaveras Boulevard, between Gadsden Drive and Temple Drive. The second area includes Dempsey Road, between Edsel Drive and Mount Shasta Avenue, as well as Yosemite Drive, between Dempsey Road and South Park Victoria Drive.

- How were the neighborhoods chosen?
-
The goal of the neighborhood selection was to get a good mix and representation of the different residential areas within the City. The neighborhoods were chosen based on several factors, including:
- Composition of neighborhood
- Location to schools
- Street size
- Impacts in the City's trash load reduction plan
- Input from Milpitas Sanitation
