There will be no enforcement of meter and time limit regulations on the day of the parade, Friday, February 14. Safety violations such as parking too close to the corner, fire hydrants, blocking crosswalks and double parking will be enforced.

Sports Complex parking lots to be closed

Commuters will not be allowed to use the parking lots at the Sports Complex in South Philadelphia for the parade on Friday.

The city confirmed those lots will be closed, just like they were for the parade in 2018.

One of the reasons, the city said, is that having the lots open takes away too much Philadelphia police manpower, which is needed elsewhere for parade security.

Bicycle Lane Detours

During the parade, several bicycle lanes along Benjamin Franklin Parkway, Broad Street, and streets in the vicinity will be inaccessible.

Cyclists are advised to use caution when traveling in the area.

There will be no access to the Schuylkill River Trail from the rear of the Philadelphia Museum of Art on Friday, February 14. Westbound travel on the Schuylkill Travel will terminate at Paine Skate Park.
