New App Provides Bostonians With Street Cleaning Schedules
Residents in Boston can now be alerted when scheduled street sweeping is taking place.

Thanks to ParkWise - a new mobile parking app - residents in Boston can now be alerted when scheduled street sweeping is taking place in their neighborhood. Additionally, the app will aid residents in finding the nearest open parking spots on the area streets.
“Everyone knows how frustrating it is when you come home and have to drive around your neighborhood for 30 minutes looking for a parking spot on the street,” said Alexander Shvartz, StreetInfoTech CEO. “ParkWise not only helps you find a parking spot, but it also alerts you of any street cleaning scheduled in your area, which is particularly helpful as we enter the street cleaning season.”
ParkWise provides real-time information about open parking spots and the location of soon-to-be open spots. The app will then save the driver’s location and alert them when the area is set to undergo street cleaning.
