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

I’m fed up with the constant noise from garbage trucks hitting potholes. My dog barks every time, and it’s driving us crazy. We need smoother roads.
It feels like an earthquake every night when the garbage trucks hit those huge potholes. It's impossible to sleep through it. Please, we need these streets repaired now!
These potholes are ruining our neighborhood. The noise from the garbage trucks is unbearable, and it's damaging our cars. The city needs to step up and fix this.

I'm a light sleeper, and the noise from garbage trucks hitting potholes is unbearable. Can't they do something about the street conditions?
Every night, the garbage trucks rumble through and hit those deep potholes, making such a racket! It wakes up my baby every single time. We need these potholes fixed ASAP!
Our street looks like a war zone with all the potholes. It’s not just annoying; it’s dangerous. We need repairs and maybe a speed bump to slow down traffic.
Can we also get a speed bump to slow down these speeding trucks?
The potholes are not just an inconvenience; they’re a safety hazard. My elderly mother almost fell because of them. We need these fixed and a speed bump to slow down traffic.
