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

Curb bulbout could be constructed here to reduce safety concerns posed to pedestrians by delivery and freight traffic. Delivery trucks have often been observed to ride up on sidewalk and damage street tree pits or cause safety concerns to pedestrians.
Need protected bike lane here - does not make sense to have a gap in the network here
It's just awful living on this block. So many trucks turning left onto Beverley, consistently blocking intersection. Honking at all hours.
Many observed instances of westbound trucks (1) blocking box/crosswalk during pedestrian walk phase and (2) crossing double yellow line in order to get through intersection to wider part of church avenue. DOT should not have removed the physical lane barrier on the west side of the intersection a few years ago it encourages dangerous behavior.
Trucks are too loud we don't like the trucks in our neighborhood.
Trucks and vehicles fly through the stop sign at this intersection. Pedestrians are constantly at risk of getting hit. The stop signs are usually blocked by vehicles.
My dog is terrified of the loud noises from the trucks. She barks all night, and none of us can get any rest.
These trucks are not only noisy but also dangerous. I’ve seen them speeding through our neighborhood without any regard for the safety of our children.
The vibrations from the trucks are causing cracks in my walls. Who's going to pay for that damage?
I can't even have a conversation on my porch without being interrupted by the loud roar of truck engines. This needs to stop.
