The NYC Truck Route Network is a system of designated roads that helps commercial vehicles navigate the city efficiently. It aims to:
Connect primary freight origins and destinations.
Maximize access to industrial and commercial zones.
Minimize conflicts with residential areas and vulnerable road users.
This network is crucial for supporting the local economy and livability by:
Organizing neighborhood truck activity
Reducing traffic congestion on non-designated routes
Feedback Guidance:
We want to hear from you, help us identify how and where we can improve the movement of trucks on our city streets.
Options for feedback:
Confusing Truck Route Signage: A Unclear or inaccurate posted truck route signage
Missing Truck Route Signage: A lack of adequate signage to help guide trucks to and along designated truck routes.
Poor network connection: Areas with inadequate truck route network connectivity, often leading truck drivers to deviate from designated truck routes.
Weight & Height Restrictions: Overweight and/ or over-dimensional trucks are often observed.
Limited Curb Access: Trucks observed blocking moving, bike, or bus lanes; or have limited access to curbs for loading and unloading purposes.
Narrow Roadway: Limitations by the physical characteristics of the street, such as narrow roadway
Difficult Truck Turn: Limitations by the physical characteristics of the street, such as sharp turns
Maintenance Needed: Substandard road conditions, such as potholes, uneven surfaces, or lack of maintenance.
Limited Truck Parking: Shortage of designated parking spaces for trucks.
Observed Bicyclist and Truck Conflict: Observed locations where multiple incidents of bicycle and truck conflicts occurred
Observed Pedestrian and Truck Conflict: Observed locations where multiple incidents of pedestrian and truck conflicts occurred
Speeding Truck: Locations where trucks are observed speeding along the street or intersection
Health and Environmental Impact: Locations with air quality, general health, and environmental concerns

The stretch of road on Caton between Argyle and Rugby is used by bicyclists between the parade ground route and Southbound Rugby. There is currently no alternative connecting these bike routes except the shared lane with the trucks. It is widely used and very dangerous. Perhaps a pedestrian light/ bike crossing at Rugby to cross over Caton would help in the same way that the light at Parkside and Argyle helped!
Trucks run lights to catch the light at Beadel Street. Extremely dangerous to cross Vandervoort Ave
Trucks can not make the turn at the corner of Minton street into Brunswick Ave
Eastern Parkway, from Atlantic Ave to Ralph Ave, needs to have the No Standing and No Parking rules enforced in the right lane.
East New York Ave needs to be repaved.
Constant double parking by Amazon and other delivery trucks, during rush hour, along Union Street east bound. The right lane is almost always blocked.
Constant double parking by Amazon and other delivery trucks, during rush hour, along 8th Ave. If people want deliveries, there needs to be more curb access or set times for deliveries.
Constant double parking by Amazon and other delivery trucks, during rush hour, along 8th Ave. If people want deliveries, there needs to be more curb access or set times for deliveries.
very difficult turn, particularly when trucks are turning from Caton onto Coney Island, while pedestrians should have the right of way to cross while the walk sign is on, but trucks crowd the intersection to avoid missing the light. extremely dangerous for pedestrians.
