FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Comprehensive Drupal modernization empowers content management autonomy while improving public access to essential city services
BEND, Ore. – September 26, 2025 – StreetsLA, the Bureau of Street Services within the City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works, has successfully launched a modernized website platform that enhances operational efficiency and improves constituent access to essential city services. Working in partnership with iS2 Digital and Fundamental Design Group, the organization migrated from an outdated Drupal 7 system to the latest version while implementing intuitive content management capabilities that empower staff to update information independently and efficiently.
The modernization addresses critical operational challenges that were impacting both internal efficiency and public service delivery. The previous platform's execution created bottlenecks for staff attempting routine updates, while constituents faced difficulties accessing essential services, particularly street sweeping schedules that affect thousands of Los Angeles residents daily. The new platform establishes a foundation for enhanced constituent communication while providing StreetsLA with the operational autonomy needed to maintain current, accessible information.
"The layout, the design, the implementation -- it was all very successful," said Kevin Goldberg, CEO of iS2 Digital. "We were able to provide strategic guidance on design choices and implement Drupal's Layout Builder giving the StreetsLA team the content management capabilities they needed for operational independence."
The modernized platform delivers significant business capabilities including leveraging Drupal's Layout Builder to provide intuitive drag-and-drop page creation functionality for non-technical staff, eliminating previous dependencies on technical resources for routine content updates. The responsive design ensures consistent functionality across desktop, tablet, and mobile platforms, while custom integration solutions connect the new website with legacy street sweeping scheduling systems that serve LA's diverse population. Additional enhancements included Google Translate supporting 35 languages and MailChimp connectivity for improved constituent communication.
This modernization positions StreetsLA to better serve Los Angeles residents while supporting the organization's five-year strategic plan emphasizing transparent, fully engaged, and equity-focused services. The platform migration eliminates security vulnerabilities associated with end-of-life software while establishing technical infrastructure that supports future digital initiatives. By empowering internal teams with intuitive content management tools, the solution enables StreetsLA to maintain current information and respond efficiently to constituent needs across the nation's second-largest city.
