NYC Priorities

Curb Side Truck Parking

A significant lack of curbside delivery zones creates significant safety and enforcement issues for the trucking industry in New York City. Increasing available curbside parking, addressing issues with NYC鈥檚 stipulated fine program and advocating for stronger enforcement of parking placard abuse are among TANY鈥檚 top priorities to address the shortage of delivery zones in New York City.

Overnight Truck Parking

A lack of available overnight parking in the New York City region forces trucks to park in areas not intended for commercial vehicles, including residential neighborhoods. 91直播视频continues to work with the NYC Department of Transportation and NYC Economic Development Corporation to identify opportunities for future overnight parking facilities.

Clear Lanes/Clear Curbs

91直播视频was successful in modifying and/or eliminating the Clear Lanes/Clear Curbs program in both Brooklyn and Queens. Work continues on eliminating the program in midtown Manhattan.

Vehicle Dimensions

NYC鈥檚 antiquated vehicle dimension restrictions present significant compliance challenges for the trucking industry. 91直播视频is advocating for an increase in vehicle length and width to align with state and federal limits.

Marking Requirements

91直播视频is advocating for an update to NYC鈥檚 marking requirements to conform to state and federal requirements.

Permit Program

91直播视频is advocating for a full review of NYC鈥檚 current overweight permit program to ensure fairness, encourage compliance and reduce administrative burdens.

NYC Truck Routes

91直播视频is advocating for a full review of the current truck route system, the use of better signage and for the removal of the 2-point violation provision.
