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:

There are oversized trucks that constantly move down Church Avenue. They block the crosswalks, they double park, and block traffic
Oversized trucks constantly on Flatbush ave seen from here
I regularly see trucks and semi-trailers on Parkside
Frequent issues with bike lane obstruction from trucks mainly Amazon
53' trailers regularly can't make this turn and collide with parked cars. Far too many illegal oversized trucks here.
There are 53 foot trucks parked for delivery outside this McDonalds nearly daily. These are both illegal by law in New York City, and incredibly disruptive to northbound Broadway road traffic. The trucks often park in a nearly-jackknifed manner across two of the three northbound lanes and idle for nearly an hour during AM rushhour.
the space between the two traffic lights here is only long enough for one full length truck and they are all trying to make a left onto Caton. That leads to so many instances of a blocked intersection at Fort Hamilton and MacDonald… especially because the trucks are turning left into a bus stop.
I frequently sit in the outdoor dining at this intersection and there are regularly oversized (greater than 53 feet) trucks racing down the street. Unsafe and loud.
No signage restricting trucks
Unauthorized trucks utilizing unauthorized street and impeding bicycle lane.
