The loading zone currently on Forsyth St. at the corner of Delancey (between Delancey and Rivington) should be moved around the corner to Delancey St at the corner of Forsyth (between Eldridge and Forsyth Sts). The large truck traffic and concentration of delivery workers on the sidewalk on Forsyth St. during deliveries creates an excess of noise, emissions (from trucks left idling), and crowding on the sidewalk that are disruptive to residents. The delivery trucks are wide enough to potentially obstruct the movement of ambulances onto Forsyth St, where there is a medical facility with an ambulance bay. Delancey St. is a commercial thoroughfare with a very wide sidewalk where noise, emissions, and sidewalk crowding will be far less disruptive to the community, and add needed commercial activity in a stretch of sidewalk that is poorly-lit, mostly empty, and invites activities such as drug use and sidewalk sleeping. The business that the loading zone on Forsyth St. currently serves has doors that open onto Delancey, so its operations would not be disrupted by shifting the loading zone location from Forsyth to Delancey.

Dear NYC DOT Team, I am writing on behalf of citizenM New York times square Hotel, located at 218 W 50th St, New York, NY 10019, to formally request the installation of a designated hotel loading zone in front of our property. Our hotel serves a high volume of guests daily, many of whom arrive via taxis, rideshare services, and shuttle vans. Currently, the lack of a designated loading area results in frequent double-parking, congestion, and safety concerns for both pedestrians and drivers. We believe a hotel loading zone would: • Improve traffic flow on 50th St. • Enhance pedestrian safety • Support ADA accessibility for guests with mobility needs • Reduce illegal standing and double-parking incidents We propose the loading zone be located at 218 W 50st TH, and suggest operating hours of  7 AM – 7 PM, Monday to Saturday, in line with DOT standards. We are happy to provide additional documentation, photos, or meet with DOT representatives to discuss this request further. Thank you for your consideration and for your continued efforts to improve New York City’s streetscape. Sincerely, Diego Reyes Maintenance Manager Sr, citizenM Hotels Phone: 256-749-1855 Email: Reyes-Diego1@Aramark.com

Loading in Travel Lane

I strongly urge the Department of Transportation to approve a dedicated commercial loading zone on 97th Place between Christie Avenue and 55th Avenue in Corona. This stretch of road is a daily traffic nightmare. The constant need for large commercial vehicles to double-park to load and unload goods blocks an entire lane, creating an extremely dangerous situation. This persistent double-parking is: A major public safety hazard for pedestrians, residents, and especially cyclists who are forced into live traffic. Causing severe congestion and unpredictable traffic flow, making driving here hazardous. Impeding access for emergency vehicles, which is an unacceptable risk. Installing a commercial loading zone is not a convenience—it's an essential infrastructure fix that will immediately restore traffic capacity, improve street safety, and enhance the quality of life for everyone who uses this street. Please review and approve this request urgently.

Between 6th and 8th Streets on 8th Avenue in Park Slope, every morning during rush hour, there is so much double and triple parking in front of St Savior's elementary school due to parents dropping off their kids. It's not safe for the drivers or the pedestrians or all the kids trying to get to school at that time. Vehicles weave around the double and triple parked cars. At times, the parents don't leave enough space for average-sized vehicles to get through. It's been going on for years but the increase in aggressive driving in general on 8th avenue and the increase in double-parking in general between 15th street and Union St on 8th Avenue is making it markedly worse. Vehicles get backed up in front of St Saviors and then back up for a few blocks, then after they squeeze through, they tend to run red lights and drive way over the speed limit, creating a dangerous situation from 7th St up through 1st street. The number of times I've seen drivers speed through the red lights with pedestrians about to step into the crosswalk is terrifying. There are so many children walking to school at that time. Please designate parking for those St Savior parents or crackdown on their double/triple and one time, quadruple parking. It'll make the streets safer for pedestrians and drivers alike. Added bonus, it will allow the people desperately trying to get to Methodist hospital (via 6th street) to get there without delay or incident.
