Due to a rising COVID-19 infection rate in the City, the majority of Boston Public Schools students are taking part in remote learning.

The City of Boston is in Step 1 of Phase 3 of the state's COVID-19 reopening plan. We continue to update City-specific guidance on our reopening website.

City Hall is only open to the public on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. If you need to visit City Hall, you must make an appointment.

The state recently announced a revised stay-at-home advisory, an earlier closure of businesses at night, and an updated order restricting gatherings.

Testing is free, regardless of insurance or immigration status. Please call ahead before visiting a location.

We're providing free breakfast and lunch, Monday through Friday, across the City.

There is no residential trash and recycling pickup during the weekend.

Residents with a valid resident parking permit sticker can park in a metered or two-hour parking space in their neighborhood without having to adhere to the time limit, or pay a meter fee.

Street cleaning is on a normal schedule. At this time, we are ticketing but not towing for street sweeping.

The tow lot is open Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. - 11 p.m. Automated kiosks are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for vehicle releases.
