Street Banner Program

Banners are a decorative element to the streetscape. They can promote neighborhood revitalization, instill a sense of pride in the community or promote special events in the area.

Vertical banners can be installed on street light poles only.

Banners may only be installed on  arterial and collector streets.

Banners cannot be installed on wooden poles or utility poles.

Banners cannot be energized with electricity.

Political or religious themes are not allowed.

Obscene acts, gestures or words are not allowed.

Promotion or sale of tobacco or alcohol products.

Words like stop, drive, danger or phrases that could mislead road users.

There is no cost to apply for the program. Simply fill out the application and submit it. Applications are reviewed by staff and applicants are notified of approval status.

If approved, the applicant works with the vendor of their choice to install banners at the approved locations.

Banners can be displayed for 90 days and may be renewed after that.

All costs for mounting brackets, banners, installation and removal are at the expense of the applicant.

Installers must follow the current City of Phoenix Traffic Barricade Manual for safety during installation and removal.
