6 St - 4 Ave - 3 Ave - Brooklyn

I live on 6th Street between 4th and 3rd Ave in Brooklyn. There are always speeding trucks and cars on our street. A lot of truck/site seeing buses seem to use our street to bypass the turn onto 9th St. In the evening there are always site seeing buses turning onto this block off of 4th Ave and it is a hard turn for them as the street is one way. Sometimes the buses will stop near our building, as there is a no parking zone next to our building that is large enough to fit a bus,sometimes for extended periods, before they continue to wherever they are heading. There is a large UHaul located on this block and not only do the customers speed, but the employees will drive UHaul vehicles the wrong way down the street or the sidewalk at high speed, so they don't have to go around the block in order to move trucks from the back lot which is near 3rd Ave to the front lot that is off of 4th Ave. We also notice that in the early mornings there are deliveries to the commercial businesses that can hold up traffic for extended periods of time as we get to hear all of the honking from the people that get stuck behind these delivery trucks. This is mainly a commercial street, but the speeding trucks and cars are not safe. I don't know if anything can be done to stop trucks from turning on 6th Street so they can avoid the 9th Street turn. I don't think it is possible to add speed bumps on this street because of the commercial businesses, but maybe it would helpful if this street was local delivery and UHaul trucks only to cut down on the speeding vehicles and hold ups from deliveries on this street.

Lincoln Tunnel - Lincoln Tunnel Exit - Ny-nj Boundary

Double check height, weight, and other truck restrictions in Lincoln Tunnel between NYC and NJ. Clarify on new truck route map. NYC DOT map says 10' height restriction, but the Port Authority states 13'. Clarify any time of day restrictions.

Morgan Ave - Sharon St - Maspeth Ave - Brooklyn

This is the entrance to cooper park but you can’t cross the street due to heavy truck traffic. There definitely needs to be a stop sign in both directions in the middle of this block where the park entrance is.

Olive St - Orient Ave - Maspeth Ave

Trucks regularly speed down the one way Olive Street, adjacent to Cooper Park, which is heavily foot trafficked by park goers and nearby school children. They also regularly damage parked cars on Olive Street.

Hicks St - Atlantic Ave - Pacific St

This intersection is dangerous to cross as a pedestrian. I often have to cross Atlantic Avenue at Hicks street with my young children and have witnessed vehicles going through red lights, blocking the intersection and speeding through the intersection, making it extremely unsafe to cross.

Brooklyn Queens Expwy Et 27 Eb - Brooklyn Queens Expwy Et 27 Eb - Atlantic Ave

It's extremely difficult and dangerous to cross the street at this intersection. I have young children and it is dangerous to try to cross Atlantic Avenue/the BQE on ramp here to get to the playground located at this intersection.

Waterbury St - Ten Eyck St - Maujer St

I own a business on this block, and see daily that trucks cannot make the turn onto Ten Eyck from Waterbury St. As a result, there are daily traffic jams, and parked cars are frequently damaged. Further, two large trucks cannot safely pass each other on Waterbury St, with cars parked on both sides. This should be a one-way street. As it is not, we are all forced to park partially on the sidewalk, to avoid damage to our vehicles, which also impedes pedestrian foot traffic. This corridor of the neighborhood cannot accommodate large trucks, and it is a daily struggle of the local business owners because the city has not effectively addressed this.

Grand St - Waterbury St - Catherine St

Trucks parked and blocking bike lanes throughout the day, all day, forcing cyclists the weave and detour into the traffic. It's highly dangerous, and there have been multiple deaths. The police refuse to issue tickets or enforce the laws, and the trucks will not respect the traffic laws or cyclists or pedestrians through these more industrial areas of our neighborhood.
