Parking on 31st Avenue: What You Need to Know

Finding parking on 31st Avenue means paying close attention to the rules. The city's mechanical sweepers clean this block on Thu 2nd & 4th and Thu 1st & 3rd. You must keep the curb clear until 8. Many locals park a few blocks away the night before to avoid the early morning rush.

Residential Permits (RPP) & Meters

Besides street cleaning, check if 31st Avenue requires a Residential Parking Permit (RPP). If you don't have a neighborhood permit sticker, you might only be allowed to park for 2 hours. If you are at a parking meter, make sure you pay through the official PayByPhone app or at the machine.

Colored Curbs on 31st Avenue

Always check the color of the curb before you leave your car. Red means no parking ever (fire lanes). White is for 5-minute passenger loading, and Yellow is for commercial vehicles. A ticket for blocking a red zone is much more expensive than a regular street sweeping fine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q.Does the city clean both sides of 31st Avenue at once?

A.No. San Francisco usually sweeps one side of the street on one day, and the opposite side on another day, so you have a place to move your car.

Q.Do I need a permit to park on 31st Avenue?

A.If there are RPP signs (like Area 'A' or 'Z'), you can only park for 2 hours without a permit. Street cleaning rules still apply to everyone.

Q.What should I do if my car gets towed from 31st Avenue?

A.If your car is missing, do not panic. Call SFMTA or look up their 'Find My Towed Vehicle' website to see if it was towed for a violation.
