Can I park after street cleaning NYC?

ASP rules are posted on signs with a P crossed by a broom and indicate the days and times parking isn't allowed. When ASP is in effect, you can't park on the side of the street that is being cleaned. The rules apply for the entire time posted on the sign, even if a street sweeper has passed.
