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

As a mother of two young kids, the noise from the trucks keeps them up at night. Our quality of life has really gone downhill because of this truck route.
The constant truck traffic on Kings Highway is causing serious vibrations in our home, resulting in cracks in the walls. It's getting harder to live peacefully here.
It's clear that the heavy trucks on Kings Highway are not suitable for a residential area. The vibrations, noise, and pollution are affecting our daily lives. Please, let's reroute the trucks to improve our community’s quality of life.
The damage these trucks are causing to our homes is serious. Cracked walls, noise, and pollution are not what we signed up for. The route needs to be changed immediately.
As a single mom, I worry about my child’s health with all the pollution from the trucks. The noise disrupts her sleep and schoolwork. We need a quieter, safer neighborhood.
My elderly parents live with me and the constant noise and vibrations are affecting their health. We need a quieter, safer neighborhood. It’s time to find a new route for these trucks.

The vibrations from the trucks are causing structural damage to my house. The noise is disturbing, and the air quality has worsened. Our neighborhood deserves better. Please reroute the trucks
I’ve lived here for 20 years and have never seen our quality of life deteriorate this badly. The constant truck traffic is ruining our homes and our peace. Something needs to be done.
As a mother of two young children, I am deeply concerned about the smog and noise from these trucks. Our kids deserve to grow up in a safe and healthy environment. Please change the truck route for the sake of our families.
