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

Weight & Height Restrictions: Overweight and/ or over-dimensional trucks are often observed.
Limited Curb Access: Trucks observed blocking moving, bike, or bus lanes; or have limited access to curbs for loading and unloading purposes.
Narrow Roadway: Limitations by the physical characteristics of the street, such as narrow roadway
Difficult Truck Turn: Limitations by the physical characteristics of the street, such as sharp turns
Maintenance Needed: Substandard road conditions, such as potholes, uneven surfaces, or lack of maintenance.
Limited Truck Parking: Shortage of designated parking spaces for trucks.
Observed Bicyclist and Truck Conflict: Observed locations where multiple incidents of bicycle and truck conflicts occurred

The Bus Company continuously parks a full bus on the side walk 24/7. Pedestrians have to walk into the roadway. NYPD closes 311 complaints without action. Please make it end.
Truck drivers clearly don't know the truck route ends here, and they continue down Morgan through the residential areal. Please put a sign in front of Meeker, telling Trucks know that they can't continue straight, only turn right onto Meeker. It is not safe.
Being a pedestrian on this stretch is harrowing. Trucks are parked all over. I have to walk in the street to avoid them, but they speed on this road all the time.
This road is so narrow, that businesses park trucks on the sidewalk. NYPD doesn't enforce. Pedestrians have to walk into the street because the sidewalk is full of trucks. It happens on this block regularly, all the way to Anthony St.
Trucks along Morgan (adjacent to Cooper Park) are often so big that they take up space for bicycle riders to ride safely.
No truck parking / loading, so they double park and causes massive backups along this street, which in turn cases angry drivers who honk, drive aggressively, and run red lights.
The noise level and speed of large trucks on these streets have increased by an alarming rate. It’s both dangerous and effecting quality of life.
Road surface itself is wavy/warped from overweight traffic here in numerous places between Coney Island Ave and Flatbush-- entire foundation of the road probably needs to be rebuilt, very unsafe for bicyclists and large bumps could potentially cause loss of control (space for ice puddles in winter etc) especially as at night everyone speeds along this stretch.
Trucks speed through the lights racing towards the BQE.
Trucks speed to make this light daily. It's right next to two schools.
