Inglewood, CA Public Conduct: Jaywalking (2026)

Section 3-31, "Jay Walking Prohibited," is one sentence: pedestrians in a business district must cross at a marked crosswalk, not mid-block or diagonally. The section works together with Sec. 3-30, which authorizes the Public Works Director to establish crosswalks at intersections and other hazardous locations, sets a minimum block length of two hundred feet before a mid-block crosswalk can be installed elsewhere than at an intersection, and limits any given block to one additional crosswalk beyond the intersection crossings. Inglewood's code names its business-district street grid elsewhere in the same chapter, at Sec.

3-42(14)-(15), which references Manchester Boulevard, Mercantile Place, Market Street, and La Brea Avenue, giving a concrete sense of where the marked-crosswalk requirement is enforced downtown. Sec. 3-31 appears on the infraction list in Sec. 1(a), so a violation is not charged as a misdemeanor; it draws the graduated fine schedule set out in Sec. 1-18. Enforcement is relevant on SoFi Stadium and Kia Forum event days, when large pedestrian volumes cross Inglewood's commercial streets outside of marked intersections.
