Gardena Direct handles right-of-way maintenance requests

Gardena Public Works sends public right-of-way maintenance requests to Gardena Direct. That is the place to start for many street and public-area problems, rather than guessing which staff member to email.

The Operations and Maintenance page covers a broad set of public infrastructure: graffiti removal, illegal dumping, park maintenance, railroad crossings, streets, sidewalks, sanitation, sewer and storm drain work, traffic signals and signs, and trees.

That range is helpful in Gardena because public right-of-way issues can sit close together. A sidewalk problem may be near a tree. A storm drain issue may be near a curb. A signal or sign problem may be tied to a busy corridor.

When you report something, include the nearest address or cross street, the side of the street, and what the issue affects. A clear photo can help staff tell whether it is graffiti, dumping, tree work, sidewalk damage, or another maintenance lane.
