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

With the constant truck traffic, these potholes are getting worse by the day. How about adding a speed bump to slow them down and prevent more damage?
Every time I drive over these potholes, it feels like my car is going to fall apart. We need these fixed and maybe even a speed bump to slow down the trucks.
As an elderly resident, the noise and vibrations from the trucks are very disruptive. It’s hard enough to sleep at my age without the constant rumbling of large vehicles outside. Please, let's find a quieter solution.
The vibrations from these trucks are causing real damage to our property. I’ve noticed new cracks in my walls and driveway. It's time to find a new route for these trucks.
I'm a retired teacher, and I value peace and quiet. These trucks are too loud and damaging our homes. We need a better solution.
Every time a garbage truck goes by, my whole house shakes. I’ve already had to repair cracks in my walls twice this year. This truck route is ruining our neighborhood.
The noise from the UPS and FedEx trucks is driving me crazy! My kids can’t concentrate on their homework, and I can’t even enjoy a quiet moment in my own home. We need a new truck route ASAP.
As a resident of this neighborhood for over 40 years, I can tell you the quality of life has really gone downhill. The constant truck traffic is damaging our homes and making it hard to live peacefully. Please consider changing the truck route for the sake of our community.
It’s frustrating to see our once peaceful community disrupted by heavy truck traffic. The noise alone is enough to disrupt daily life, but the damage to our homes is unacceptable. Something must be done.
