Philadelphia Streets Department Permits

In Philadelphia, building permits are only half the battle. If your construction project impacts the sidewalk, the street, or the public right-of-way, you have to deal with the Philadelphia Streets Department. Missing these permits is the fastest way to get your site shut down and hit with heavy fines.

As active contractors in the city, we know exactly how to coordinate between L&I and the Streets Department to keep your logistics running smoothly.

Right-of-Way Permits We Handle:

• Equipment Placement: Permits for dumpsters, storage containers, and heavy machinery placed on city streets.
• Scaffolding & Shelter Platforms: Sidewalk protection is mandatory for multi-story exterior work. We expedite the approvals for your scaffolding and overhead protection.
• Street & Sidewalk Closures: Need to block a lane for a crane lift or close a sidewalk for exterior masonry work? We handle the traffic control plans and closure permits.
• Curb Cuts & Driveways: Coordinating approvals for new driveway aprons and curb modifications.
