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

Hi, right on the corner of this address are 2 or 3 schools, elementary and junior. Is a very busy street and a lot, lot big and long trucks use this street. I think is a very smart and stoning idea, to do something about it, and keep everyone safe, specifically children. Thank you!

Speeding trucks, no enforcement.

This is a one way and trucks mistakingly go into the street and knock down power lines. There is no sign indicating the height in which trucks are not allowed to enter unless there is a certain height. Also school buses speed and crash into cars in this neighborhood all the time.
trucks speed even when there are students
even with signs, cars go the opposite direction down the block.
Trucks frequently get stuck and hold up traffic on 20th and 4th.
Observed multiple cycles get hit by cars
